Programs such as (SKYWARN) Severe Weather Spotter program, Amateur Radio Emergency Services (ARES), Community Emergency Response Team (CERT), and the Sheriff’s Search Operations Assistance and Rescue (SOAR) are successful because of many volunteers who are willing and able to leave at a moments notice to serve our community. Our staff and volunteers are well prepared to respond to disasters because of the pride and enthusiasm they show in ongoing training for disaster response. In addition to responding to disasters, our staff and volunteers provide public education opportunities in disaster preparedness, response and recovery.
If you have any questions please call Winona County Emergency Management at 507-457-6598 or email Ben Klinger for more information about volunteer opportunties in Emergency Management for Winona County/City of Winona.
