SCERT Expo event tonight!
A reminder that tonight our SCERT (Somerfield Community Emergency Response Team) are fortunate to have Tyler Barton present to all of our communities about the Alpine Fault impending to rupture (but hopefully not in our lifetime!?!!)
It will be an interesting & informative evening thanks to this really lovely Somerfield Local University of Canterbury PhD student!!
We will also acknowledge the events since Friday 15th March when our world and city in particular changed!!
Thanks to the Cashmere High Students who will participating in our event on behalf of all who may be grieving following the Mosque Mass shootings.
We have many fun games / novelty items to share with anyone attending - Thanks to the All Right Campaign and the NZ Blood Service!!!
We welcome anyone at all to join us and hope you find it a worthwhile experience and you are able to meet some residents /groups within our various communities.
If you or your community group are contemplating ideas for creating a New preparedness / response group then this will also be a great event for you to Not miss!
If anyone local to Somerfield has not yet received a SCERT package and would like for one - please either pick one up tonight or let me know.
Warm Regards and Kia Kaha to everyone for tomorrow morning's National Memorial event!
