Wadena Status Report 1

Thursday, June 24th, 2010

I reported on site to the Salvation Army Deployment Headquarters, St. Anne’s Catholic Church, 201 Emerson Ave, Wadena, Mn. at 0900 hours.  AS IC for the  Green Cross team, I was in to do assessment and planning for the Tornado Recovery programs with the Salvation Army.

Ed Wilson and Steve Carbno, IC and Asst IC were on hand.  

I immediately met with a group of Mental Health professionals from Catholic Charities, Red Cross, and other entities, discussing the plans and role Green Cross will play in those plans. I explained why were on site and what services we plan to provide.

Ed Wilson, Steve Carbno and I met, laying our what had been done what needs be done, and who would be doing what. Steve and I spent 1 ½ hours touring the tornado site and meeting with the workers.

Steve C and I attended a town meeting, which addressed what had been accomplished, so far, and the immediate plans for the future. I met the Mayor and other city and county officials.

I was asked by the Mayor,  Sheriff Carr asked me to check in with him, and Police Chief Uselman asked  if I might have the “brown room” in the city hall manned next week.

Steve was informed that SA would be receiving a check for $25 M for their outstanding work here.

I did an intervention for  a S.A. volunteer, as requested by management.

I decided, based on all information, that there would be work for at least 4 persons for the following week.
