CERT training starts March 12

The LW Community Emergency Response Team (LW CERT) will hold a training on March 12. Classes are held from 6-8 p.m. on Tuesdays and Thursdays for six weeks.

The LW CERT Team is a club of residents who are trained to help themselves and others in an emergency. During the training, residents are taught to:

• Plan for emergencies, power outages, and earthquakes.

• Protect themselves and others by learning skills such as basic first aid, using a fire extinguisher, and reacting in an emergency.

• Recover and get back on their feet after a disaster. For more information, contact Eloy Gomez at 562-4316586, ext. 2356, or email eloyg@lwsb.com.
