Emergency Door Alerts....


are a great way to quickly check on the people in your neighborhood after an emergency situation.  You should have recieved a 3 ring binder from the block captain in your area.  In the back of this binder are your colored sheets of paper.  If you did not get your binder, which is full of info for Fruit Hts residents specifically on what to do should we have an emergency, please let me know.   I will make sure you get one.  If you do not know who your block captain is let me know alsoI will find out who your captain is and let you know.   You will need to know this in the event of an emgerency.

You will need the sheets of colored paper to display on your house after an emergency to help those who are out to help people in need.
Each color has a specific meaning: Green means all is well here, go help someone who needs it. Yellow means we need help, but it is not critical.  Red means we need help NOW!  Black means there is a deceased person inside please send help. White  means that you have evacuated, no need to check this house.

In the Event of an Emergency, you will need to tape the colored piece of paper that applies to your situation to the front of your house so that it can be easily spotted from the road by Emergency Personnel. (rescue teams) This will help everyone!   Please be ready with these colored papers, so that those able to help can do so efficiently! I suggest you keep them close to your front door, ready to use, along with some duct tape.

Let me know if you need help in getting your binder and these colored papers!!!  We need everyone to participate in this program for help to get to the right places quickly.  Thanks!
