Hello Galveston County CERT Family,
With hurricane season upon us, now is the time to ensure you are prepared to care for yourself, your family, your pets, and your property in the event of a storm. We have been highlighting ways to prepare on our social media pages. Please share these to help get the suggestions out to others.
While our funding situation remains unresolved, we are hopeful that recent developments at the federal level, particularly regarding the Department of Homeland Security, may lead to progress soon. In the meantime, we invite you to join us for an upcoming CERT meeting where we will share important updates on the status of our team and discuss how you can help us raise money for training by participating in a new fundraising opportunity. We will give you all the details on how you can support your team at the meeting on Wednesday, June 10, 2026. This will be an important opportunity to raise up to $5000 for us to prepare for the next deployment. We hope to use some of this money to put on a full-scale drill using most of our specialty teams and all our membership! An email will be sent out to all explaining the fundraising event and how you can participate on June 11th for those who can’t attend the meeting in person. The fundraising event starts on June 15th!
Meeting Details:
Wednesday, June 10, 2026, starting at 6:30 PM. The location of the meeting will be the main ballroom of the community center at Walter Hall Park located at 807 Highway 3 N, League City, TX 77573. Your involvement is important, and we hope you can attend.
Thank you for your continued support,
John and Doris Herrmann
