Medina’s Emergency Preparedness Committee is essential in mobilizing local volunteers for emergency preparedness planning. Meeting quarterly, the committee discusses current events, educational resources, and updates on local and regional response exercises. Membership is open to anyone interested in enhancing community resilience against potential emergencies. Currently led by Rosalie Gann, with Doug Dicharry coordinating the radio network, the committee encourages active participation from residents, fostering a culture of preparedness and vigilance. Interested individuals can reach out to Captain Austin Gidlof via email or phone for more information or to join.

This collaborative effort not only raises community awareness but also strengthens Medina's overall emergency response capabilities, which are crucial for effectively handling emergencies.
