Upcoming EVCNB Emergency Shelter and Warming Center Exercise

You are invited to come, participate, and/or observe the full scale Community Shelter & Emergency Warming Center Exercise. The exercise will include multiple goals for processes that are integral for Shelter Operations, including the Medical Reserve Corps for injury/health care.

This is an exercise in which your family, friends and neighbors, as volunteers in our community, will exercise processes for setting up and running a shelter when needed in an emergency or disaster. Shelters are part of the county Emergency Operations Plan.

There will be several drawings for “GoBag” items; and one of the prizes will be a fully stocked “GoBag.”

The Shelter exercise will be in operations with Registration, Communications, Feeding, Dormitory, and Medical functions being exercised.

There will also be an Open house with guided tours, orientation to the new Medical Reserve Corps Response Trailer, and display tables with emergency Preparedness information.

Parking:

Please carpool if possible. There will be the option to drop off, but parking will be limited close by. Street parking is available on 7th street along the pickle ball court, and on the 700 block of H Street in Nehalem.
