Sound the Alarm Project.
Red Cross “Sound the Alarm” Project
Saturday, Oct 14th from 0830-1230L
The Sound the Alarm Project (STA) is sponsored by the American Red Cross (ARC) and will work & operate in the Washington Hills area (adjacent to Highway 58, east of Elder’s Ace Hardware). The Chattanooga Amateur Radio Club is proud to be the communications partner for with ARC.
The Fire Department has statistically identified the Washington Hills area as having an above average number of house fires. One house fire can consume a block of houses. The Red Cross STA Program offers residents free smoke alarms and will replace existing alarms with new ones and fresh batteries. To implement the STA, Red Cross Volunteers in teams of 2 will go door to door, offer and install the alarms.
A radio operator acting as a data collector and reporter will accompany each team. Data collected will be analyzed to find residences that are high risk, would not accept an alarm; vacant property; “bad” dog locations, i.e., could not approach; evident fire hazards, etc. The analysis will allow the Fire Department to make targeted “educational” visits to the houses in question. For radio operators, this will be community service, relationship building, practice at reporting data as if there was a disaster, and also a radio comms exercise. We anticipate the need of 15 radio operators with HTs.
