AmeriCorp, here in Bandon???...

Hey Folks,

Please read this document on the new Disaster Plan for Bandon and then read the article on the new graduating class of AmeriCorps.....

The Dept of Homeland Security has just graduated its first class of 231 Homeland Youth

Bandon is going to place Neighborhood Captains in charge of your neighborhood in the case of a Natural Disaster. This sounds like a really good plan until we reflect on FEMA's response in New Orleans during Hurricane Katrina.
