Big Bear, Calif., The Big Bear Valley Community Organizations Active in Disaster (COAD) continues to prepare for fire season. You can help prepare your community for disasters big and small by attending a five-hour American Red Cross disaster-training course to assist with shelter operations within Big Bear Valley.
The training will take place on Monday, June 18, 2018 from 8:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. at Community Church Big Bear, 40946 Big Bear Blvd, Big Bear Lake, Calif. You can register by emailing your name and contact information to bbvcoad@gmail.com or via phone at 909.214.6990
Residents who complete the training will be certified event-based volunteers. You will be the first responders when the Red Cross is called upon to open a shelter anywhere in the Big Bear area. For residents wishing to become full-fledged Red Cross volunteers, staff members will be on hand during the training to guide you through the process.
