    6-25-09 / CERT SUPPORT SERVICES ACTIVATED

    Spartanburg CERT Rehab responded to a submersion call on 6/25/09.  Deputies, EMS, Fire Marshal's Office and several fire departments responded to the area. One group of first responders assembled near the intersection of River Road and Stonewall Drive, and the command center was set up on Dewberry Road.  While the initial call out was for CERT SAR and Rehab, this was strictly a Rehab operation.  Unfortunately, the end result was not a positive one.  Our thoughts and prayers are with the Davis family.

    CERT CONDUCTS TRAFFIC & CROWD CONTROL

    For three consecutive weeks, the Spartanburg County CERT program has been asked to assist with two 5k Benefit Runs and lastly, assist with Crowd and Traffic Control at this year's Spring Fling.  While all three events are great learning experiences, the Spring Fling Event will probably prove the most beneficial (still have one 5k run to go).  During Spring Fling, 24 CERT volunteers gave of their time and energy to support local law, fire and EMS personnel.  During this time, CERT members done the following:

    • Directed Traffic

    • Crowd Control (most notable - Rehab Concert)

    • Manned Barricades

    • Safety Officer

    While there were slow periods throughout the day, Spring Fling kept everyone busy.  All in all, we've continued to progress and expand CERT's capabilities.  As we approach the midway point of 2009, CERT is excited about what lies ahead for the program.
