Today, members of our team attended a demonstration by our neighboring team, CERT 203 - Franklin Township Community Emergency Response Team. They demonstrated field triage, a briefing tent, a command post, a sheltering area, and food distribution. It was great to see the different capabilities of a neighboring program and we look forward to increasing regional collaboration! (The photos are in no particular order)
