CERT Help Needed for Election Day, Nov 7th

The Los Angeles Fire Department has requested help from CERT graduates for California General Election Day, Tuesday, November 7, 2006.

This is a CERT event, not a call-out.

Twenty of the polling places will be at fire stations.  The purpose of the CERT volunteers will be security, community liaison and parking.

Polling will take place from 7:00am-8:00pm.  CERT members would not need to stay the entire time, but any amount of time would be helpful.

CERT members would need to wear their vests, CERT ID (if you have it) and appropriate clothing for a fire station.  Two to three volunteers per station would sufficient to provide the security.

If you can participate, let me know which fire station AND which hours you are available.

Here is the list of fire station polling locations:
