CERT volunteers most active in Fallbrook fire cleanup - North County Times
CERT volunteers most active in Fallbrook fire cleanup - North County Times: "CERT teams were going into the neighborhoods after everything was cleared and safe, handing out donated things like rakes, shovels, brooms and sifters,' said Crain, who took a week off from his job to volunteer. Even before the cleanup began, the group's members were cooking meals for firefighters and law enforcement officers still fighting fires and manning roadblocks, he said. But the Santa Ana-driven fire, which forced nearly the entire town of Fallbrook to evacuate, fanned across the community so fast and became so dangerous that team members could not take advantage of their training in rescuing home-bound residents or helping guide evacuees out of town."
