Could you help your neighbors in need?


MERRAG!  (pronounced Mirage) is a network of trained volunteers who work and live in the Montecito area. Members are prepared to respond to a community disaster during the critical first 72 hours following an event. Since 1987, the mutual “self-help” organization has been serving Montecito’s 9,000 residents with the guidance and support of the Montecito Fire, Water and Sanitary Districts.

TRAINING - Emergency Traffic Control
DATE: 06/13/2013
TIME: 10:00 am - 12:00pm
LOCATION: Montecito Fire Headquarters

Learn how to assist with Emergency Traffic Control needs within the community.

Our low rainfall this year, along with summer weather predictions have indicated that we may have a potentially active fire season this year.

Knowing how to assist emergency responders with traffic control during evacuations will be a valuable skill for MERRAG volunteers.

This session will be instructed by traffic experts from our friends at the California Highway Patrol.

We hope you will take the time to join us in the advanced training session.
