Emergency Radio Training

The Maxwell Park Emergency Response Team (MPERT) held a radio training on March 23 at Maxwell Park, led by MPERT lead volunteers Raleigh McLemore and Naomi Weinstein. A group of new and very experienced volunteers learned about and shared their knowledge of using radios to assist in the event of an emergency. Participants practiced communicating to an Oakland-wide emergency radio network. It was a fun gathering thanks to Raleigh providing enthusiasm, coffee, donuts, and door prizes!
