News Volunteer for HURREX 2012
CEMA is seeking volunteers to role play as evacuees in two upcoming disaster exercises.The exercises will take place on May 14th (Monday) and May 15th (Tuesday). During the exercises, the County will demonstrate and assess its hurricane evacuation plans. Monday's exercise will test the capability to evacuate our special medical needs citizens and Tuesday will evaluate our general evacuation plans.
The business day prior to the exercise(s) there will be a volunteer orientation. This will also be done on the exercise day. Volunteers will then be given a role playing card and proceed through the facilities as a "evacuee."
Monday's Exercise- Approximately 60 volunteer role players are needed in the Pooler area (will give specifics upon registration) from approximately 8:00 am to 11:30 am.
Tuesday's Exercise- Approximately 250 volunteer role players are needed in Downtown Savannah Area (Civic Center) from approximately 8:00 am to 11:30 am.
All participants will receive verification that they attended and participated in this disaster exercise. More details about the exercises will be made available closer to the exercise date.
