It’s all about the boom
This week, it’s all about the boom.

…you might be taking the PSC position too seriously.

Last day of HAZMAT fun
Last day of HAZMAT fun at Station-1.

Even under the Tyvek suits, you can see Aloha Friday is still in effect.

Lots of my favorite ICS forms to talk about.

Forms: Who is excited?!?!!?!
Even had a few moments of downtime to share a few bad jokes with the crew.

L to R: Richfield Fire, Cleveland Fire, Cleveland Fire, and Parma Fire.
Receive orders or take a selfie? #whoops

Have a great weekend everyone!
Day-4 HAZMAT fun
Day-4 of HAZMAT fun.

We are learning from so many different perspectives in this all-hazards class.

Even briefings are challenging esp when you have to do it in a Level-A suit.

But never fear, we are all having Level-A fun.

Reporting live from the 10s….
Humpday HAZMATting;
HAZMATting with our partners in public safety today.
Although a heavy fire department representation, the all hazards contingent in the class makes it for great discussion and hands-on training.

Only two regions in March
February was very tough. But I believe March will be a bit more sane.
First week, I will be in Ohio doing some HAZMAT Technician stuff.
Second week, I will be headed down south to Cincinnati for a DHS Bomb course.
Third week, I will be driving to Michigan to teach social media (almost on the Canadian border).
Fourth week, I will be at our State of Ohio Emergency Operations Center teaching the brand new G-290 Basic Public Information Officers’ Course.
Fifth week, I will be teaching at the State of Colorado Emergency Operations Center.
Yep, only two regions in March – which is just fine with me.

Excited for HAZMAT right?
C’mon class-let’s all get excited this morning for some HAZMAT fun!
Maybe it’s the Leap Day.
Maybe it’s just a Munday.
Maybe everyone just needs more coffee.
