Are there any HAM radio operators in your group? If so, they already have communications skills, and probably some emergency communications experience.


In my haste, I forgot to even mention that. Considering I'm a ham, that's pretty bad.

Contact your local emergency management office, because of the number of people that you have(and the political impact of alot of young people in a disaster), they may be interested in you having a comprehensive plan, and may be able to assist you. Mind you, most of them are overworked, and underpaid, as with all public service jobs.
