Hello and a good evening to all.

June was a huge month for us and one of our highlights was the General CERT Refresher which took place in Sherman Oaks. I believe that during the month of June, we saw the largest influx of new CERT members in recent memory. 

 

For those of us here in South Bureau, I count somewhere around 80 new members from four CERT Basic Training classes which completed their runs. At that same time, citywide, we were able to get MOST of those new CERT members out to refreshers, outreach events, and even CERT member-led training sessions. 

 

This last month has been pretty amazing. Please enjoy the latest issue (#115) by looking through its pages and seeing all we accomplished during that short 30 day period. 

 

Everyone, have a great and safe Independence Day Holiday. Now that July has come, more adventures will follow and you can read about it in July's issue (#116) which will come out at the end of the month...as always.  --
