Opening Announcements
-------------------------------
Thank you to Lucile who provided tonight's discussion topic.

Imagine you've been told you have a short period of time to leave your house due to an encroaching fire.  What do you take?  Which go kits do you take?  Would you take your CERT bag?  Would you take your ham radio go kit if you have one?  How would the length of the warning time affect your decisions?  What if you had a 15 minute warning?  What if you had 30 minutes, 1 hour or 2 hours?



Now we will begin CERT team roll calls, grouped by participating City CERT teams.  We will take any late or missing members after roll call finishes.  After roll call, we will call for visiting stations.
