Emergency Preparedness Training

The Nellie Gail Ranch Emergency Preparedness Committee hosted a March 3rd training meeting via Zoom. The topics covered included the following:
  • Portable and permanent standby generators – benefits of each generator type – general costs.
  • Fuel type, storage issues & safety matters, noise levels.
  • Solar systems, other types of power sources currently available – batteries, wind generators…
The training session was hosted by Dennis Blough, a ten-year member of the EPC.  We hope you enjoy and benefit from this special training session via the following link.

Block Captain Training Tuesday, April 6th at 7:30 p.m.

Current and prospective Block Captains are invited to join a Zoom training session on Tuesday, April 6th at 7:30 p.m. Attendees will learn how to best serve their neighbors and gain meaningful insight into the resources the Emergency Preparedness Committee has to offer the community. 

You can find your Block Captain by entering your address on the following link:
https://nelliegailranch.org/emergency-preparedness-committee/

If your block captain link comes up “Vacant” please consider volunteering to be the Block Captain for your neighbors. The “Become A Block Captain” webpage link will put you in contact with the EPC who can more fully describe the duties and benefits of this volunteer activity.  Now is the perfect time to volunteer and take advantage of the upcoming training.

Meanwhile, if you do already have a Block Captain, take time to get to know them.  In a time of need, they may be able to assist you and your family address needs, or you may be able to offer help to other community members via the liaison efforts of your block captain.
