Special Course Offerings:

19 Sept 2020
G0191: Incident Command System / Emergency Operations Center

Time: 0900-1700
Location: Washington Wing Headquarters, JBLM

This one-day FEMA course is a required course for the Advanced Professional Series (APS) program and NESA-MTT Instructor Program. Participants will have the opportunity to begin developing an ICS/EOC interface for their Wing with local and state jurisdictions. The course reviews ICS and EOC responsibilities and functions. It depends heavily on exercises and group discussions to formulate the interface.  





CONFERENCE CANCELED


The 2020 Spring Conference & Banquet, previously scheduled for April 17-19, 2020 at the Fairbridge Hotel and Conference Center in Yakima, WA has been canceled due to the 2019 Novel Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak.

Team Washington Wing,

After much consideration and discussion, the decision has been made to postpone the conference due to the current outbreak of Coronavirus and State of Emergency in WA State. The health and safety of our members is a priority and in efforts to keep folks safe this is our best option at the moment.

If you have hotel reservations, the hotel will be canceling them, so no need to call yourselves.

If you have already registered for any part of the conference, fees will be refunded. The conference site is being suspended so no further registrations will be taken,

If you are registered for the NESA class, please watch for a separate email and respond to that email when you get it.

Any awards we have at Wing will be mailed to units for presentation. Please be patient as we get them packaged and sent to the unit.

At this time I have no idea when we will reschedule and the hotel will work with us when we are ready. It's anticipated that this outbreak of coronavirus will get worse before it gets better, so please consider this if you are planning activities, especially in close quarters.

Thank you to those who had volunteered to help with the conference coordination. I really appreciate it.
