proud.
Once
again,
we've
had
a
number
of
accomplishments.
B
This
last
year
we
held
the
first
annual
san
bruno
preparedness
day,
which
we
hosted
at
the
san
bruno
resource
and
recovery
center.
We
staffed
information
booths
at
City
and
County
events,
continued
support
of
san
bruno
cert
program
or
community
emergency
response
team
training
program.
Our
san
bruno
amateur
radio
volunteers
participated
in
county
drills
and
updated
emergency
preparedness
messages
for
san
bruno
cable,
TV
and
english
and
spanish,
so
they've
continued
to
run
in
bilingual.
B
These
are
some
pictures
of
our
first
annual
san
bruno
disaster.
Preparedness
day.
We
had
a
great
turnout.
We
had
several
participants
that
included
the
American
Red
Cross
USGS,
United
policyholders,
Lowe's,
nice
packs
and,
as
you
can
see
in
the
photos,
we
had
OAS
there
to
sign
up
people
for
smc
alert
and
congresswoman
jackie
speier
also
attended.
B
This
was
our
san
bruno
senior
center
preparedness
day.
That
was
the
first
event
that
we
held
here
at
the
Senior
Center
as
well,
where
we
gave
out
over
a
hundred
flashlights
to
the
senior
citizens
and
information
on
preparedness
they
loved
it.
We
had
a
great
time
and
it
was
fun
watching
them
dance
where
we
were
also
giving
them
information
on
preparedness,
so
that
was
that
made
it
a
little
interesting
and
trying
to
talk
over
the
music,
but
it
was
a
lot
of
fun
and
they
really
appreciated
it.
B
We
also
attended
last
year,
the
first
time
of
the
skyline
college
health,
fair,
where
we
got
quite
a
few
members
of
our
community
and
the
college
community
to
sign
up
for
the
community
emergency
response
team
training,
which
we
actually
hosted
this
last
session
spring
session.
At
the
college,
a
wonderful
venue
for
the
event-
and
we
healthy
exercise
two
weekends
ago-
and
it
was
a
wonderful
venue
and
we're
looking
forward
to
doing
that
again
in
the
fall.
B
B
So
these
are
just
some
photos
from
disaster
preparedness
day
at
the
county.
Fair
and
we,
as
always
each
year,
have
provided
the
gym
mats
for
the
kids
and
have
trained
the
children
in
drop,
cover
and
hold
and
stop
drop
and
roll
drills,
and
they
get
a
kick
out
of
that.
They
have
a
lot
of
fun
and
they're
learning
what
to
do
in
case
of
an
earthquake
or
in
case
of
a
fire.
B
And
community
preparedness
committee
support
for
San,
Bruno,
amateur
radio,
volunteers,
we
were
convening
our
meetings
at
the
San
Bruno
resource
and
Recovery
Center.
We
have
moved
back
to
the
Emergency
Operations
Center
in
the
communications
room,
where
we
actually
hold
the
weekly
net,
which
is
on
Monday
nights.
The
meeting
itself
is
the
first
Monday
of
every
month
at
six-thirty
and
we
provide
the
communications
net
to
the
community
at
seven-thirty
p.m.
so
we
increased
our
attendance
again
and
we
participated
in
the
county
exercises.
B
B
B
Our
2013
goals
continue
to
promote
community
preparedness
at
certain
city
and
county
events,
the
skyline
college,
health,
fair.
We
actually
did
that
on
March
twentieth
again,
we
are
looking
forward
to
participating
in
the
posy
parade.
This
year,
again,
San
Mateo
County
preparedness
day,
which
this
year
will
be
held
on
saturday
june,
eighth,
again,
it's
being
held
on
the
first
day
of
the
county,
fair,
which
seems
to
increase
attendance,
and
we
are
getting
a
lot
more
people
that
sign
up
for
the
cert
trainings.
Through
that
event.
B
We're
looking
forward
to
doing
the
san
bruno
preparedness
day
at
the
Senior
Center
again
we're
yet
to
decide
that
date
and
do
some
outreach
community
outreach
at
farmer's
market
this
year
and
looking
forward
to
holding
the
second
annual
san
bruno
preparedness
day,
looking,
hopefully
sub
temporaries
emergency
preparedness
month.
So
looking
to
do
that,
possibly
the
first
weekend
and
holding
the
video.
B
Cert
outreach
to
neighborhood
watch
groups.
We
continue
to
encourage
our
neighborhood
watch
groups
to
participate,
insert
programs,
promote
use
of
sfc
alert
and
publish
a
san
bruno
smc
alert
brochure,
update
and
add
community
preparedness
and
sir
pages
to
the
city
website.
We
did
promote
cert
training
on
this
last
session
on
the
city
website
and
we
did
get
a
few
more
attendees
from
that.
So
we're
looking
forward
to
expanding
that
explore
use
of
social
media
to
conduct
community
outreach
to
residents
pertaining
to
preparedness,
preparedness,
communications,
put
a
pilot
program
to
san
bruno
schools.
B
B
What
we
found
or
the
grammar
schools
are
still
using
an
old
paper
system,
so
we
kind
of
want
to
look
at
different
ways
and
better
ways
to
communicate
through
the
grammar
school
system,
but
looking
to
tap
into
some
of
the
loops
that
are
already
in
place
for
the
junior
high
and
high
school
and
video
PSAs
on
san
bruno
cable.
Tv.
B
B
This
year's
9th
annual
San
Mateo
County
disaster
preparedness
day
against
Saturday
june,
eight
at
the
fairgrounds
from
ten
a.m.
to
two
p.m.
and
as
always,
we
encourage
people
to
register
for
smc
alert
and
looking
at
the
alert
messages,
emergency
information,
weather
alerts,
road
closures,
crime
alerts,
preparedness,
emails
and
information,
distribution
and
currently
I
think
the
number
actually
has
grown
over
2500
I.
Think
it's
more
over
2,600
now
for
the
San
Bruno
residents,
because
we
do
make
it
a
homework
assignment
and
requirement.
When
you
attend
the
cert
training,
we
want
to
make
sure
that
everybody
registers.
B
So
we
know
the
numbers
a
little
bit
higher
and
I
know
the
the
county
white
numbers
a
little
bit
higher
to
and
for
October
get
ready
to
shake
out.
We
have
this
year's
shakeout
event
that
will
be
october
17
at
1017,
so
it's
10
17
at
1017
a.m.
and
you
can
register
at
shakeout
org
to
participate.
In
that
event,.
A
B
B
A
Great
well
to
you
and
all
of
our
Commission's
boards
and
committees,
you're
the
light
flow
to
the
city.
All
the
volunteer
would
give
you
behind
the
scenes.
I'm
general
get
recognized
for
it,
but
tonight
you
will
so.
Thank
you
very,
very
much
to
union
committee.
You
keep
up
the
good
work.
Do
the
chair
gum.
C
The
folks
said
volunteered
their
time,
of
course,
to
come
there
to
be
prepared
to
get
trained,
to
try
to
make
a
difference
not
only
in
the
community
but
in
their
neighborhood,
there's
just
so
reassuring
to
meet
them
and
talk
to
them
and
what
brings
them
there
to
sit
through
several
meetings
and
then
a
Saturday
and
then
to
get
the
certificate,
the
backpack
and
to
be
added
to
the
list.
So
this
community
continues
to
thrive
when
it
comes
to
those
that
want
to
give
back
those
a
care
and
those
that
want
to
be
prepared
and
I.
