Volunteers Needed - Alert Monterey! Kick-off and Winter Storm Conference

Four or five Citizens Corps volunteers are needed for a very special event! On October 28, from noon until 1 pm, Monterey County will launch it’s campaign to register cell phones, email addresses, and additional landline phones for our TENS or “reverse 911” system, now named “Alert Monterey County!”. The event is scheduled for the Steinbeck Center in Salinas. The 2009 Winter Storm Campaign will be held immediately afterword from 1-3 pm.

The media event and demonstration for elected officials is scheduled from 12:00 - 12:30 pm. A media break and social event with lunch are scheduled for 12:30 to 1pm. This is a chance for the media to interview various participants regarding the Alert Monterey County! campaign. Citizens Corps volunteers are needed to staff a table where attendees will be registered in an online database to be used for the demonstration. All Citizens Corps volunteers are invited to attend the 2009 Winter Storm Conference immediately following.
