Brookridge CERT needs YOU!

We want you to join our Brookridge CERT team of volunteers.

Training, materials, and supplies are free to volunteers. Training includes lessons in preparation, survival, and rescue techniques in crisis situations. We learn to take care of ourselves first, family next, and then our neighbours and community.

Each year we have enjoyed relatively safe weather. We need to make sure we are prepared in case of the worst. CERT prepares us for other situations as well. Remember that disasters come from many different sources.

Get prepared, join CERT now

The Veteran's Committee meeting will be on Monday, March 20, 2023 at 10:00 am in the South Hall of the Clubhouse.

After Christmas break, the teacher asked her small pupils how they spent their holidays. One small boy's reply went like this:

We always spend Christmas with Grandma and Grandpa. They used to live up here in a big brick house, but Grandpa got retarded and they moved to Florida.

They live in a place with a lot of retarded people. They live in tin huts. They ride big three-wheeled tricycles. They go to a big building the call a wrecked hall, it is fixed now. They play games there and do exercise, but they don't do them very good. There is a swimming pool and they go to itand just stand in the water with their hats on. I guess they don't know how to swim. My Grandma used to bake cookies and stuff, but I guess she forgot how. Nobody cooks-they all go to fast food restaurants.

As you come into the community, there is a doll house with a man sitting in it. He watches all day, so they can't get out without him seeing them. They wear badges with their names on them, I guess they don't know who they are.

My Grandmas says Grandpa worked hard all his life and earned his retardment. I wish they would move back home, but I guess the man in the dollhouse won't let them out.
