DPP Community Meeting
- Thursday February 4th 2010  -

    DPP Thursday meeting featured a Triage training session. LT Robert Bennett SFD brought his EMT team to our DPP meeting. EMT Eric Zeller PM John Wedge, and Eric Dohmon answered many questions from the resident group in attendance.
   Battalion Chief Jim Wright brought PM Mike Shafer and PM Mike Wever from Station 22. This group was called away to answer and 911 call while training the session was underway.
  We value the attention and response this community receives from the Sarasota Fire Department. Their willingness to come to the clubhouse and give instruction in emergency care shows the dedication and commitment of the county at the community level.
  Next month March 4,2010 we will present a lecture on Water Saftey. Try and attend this instruction. All are welcome.
