A nice summer night at Sharon's Emergency Headquarters. Again CD members were busy with many ongoing projects. Director Polimer worked on more hose configurations for our new pumps. Vogenberg and Levine programmed new messages to our LED sign boards. Traut looked at possible battery issues on the Bucket Truck. Triolo fabricated a new door stop for the LEPC trailer. And Sharon EOC participated in the state's Hurricane Radio drill.
L-R:Levine, Zlotin, Triolo,Traut, Polimer.
CD Members will be on a training mission this thursday for the annual Square Jam. This event uses the downtown area of Sharon, with music, food and fun. CD members will be on hand for safety lighting for the community, lighting for the roadway, and emergency support. Also we will be deploying our LEPC trailer. This trailer is a mobile emergency operations center. Anything needed during a major event in town is available in the trailer. We plan on setting up the trailer to show the town our capabilities. See later posts for a detailed look at our trailer.
During Square Jam we will also use our LED sign boards with portable power boxes. These could be used for many uses during an emergency. See Levine and Vogenberg programming the signs. The signs are programmed via a laptop computer and have a flash memory.
