In addition to the weekly training, the course ends on November 19, 2011 with a simulated emergency held at the Logan City Fire Department Training Tower. This will give participants an opportunity to put their training to use.

Everyone in the community would benefit in receiving this training. CERT Training provides important information and skills for people of all ages and physical capabilities. The Mayor and City Council encourage you to give serious consideration in attending these valuable classes.

Youth Council getting ready for the 2011 Parade

The Wellsville Youth Council got their new year off to a great start! This year’s Youth Council has more than 40 members and most of them were able to participate in this year’s Founders’ Day celebration. They both rode in the parade and organized and lead the Children’s Games, which had a large turnout.

Elections for the 2011-2012 Youth Leadership will be held soon.

A special thank-you goes to Ruthanne and Jeremy Ellis for providing the adult leadership to our Youth Council. Your efforts are greatly appreciated.
