Navarre CERT to Hold Disaster Preparedness Fair: Sponsored by Trees Plus
Saturday, June 26, in Conjunction with Ham Radio Field Day
Navarre, FL – Listen to live music, build yourself a hot dog, and get information from area business and organizations about being prepared for (and recovering from) disasters, all while having a pleasant afternoon at Navarre Park. On Saturday, June 26, from noon until 5:00pm, the Navarre Community Emergency Response Team will hold a Disaster Preparedness Fair. In addition to providing information and entertainment to the community, this event is a fundraiser for Navarre CERT.
Sponsored by Trees Plus, the event will feature booths with area businesses and organizations that provide products or services related to disaster preparedness, response, recovery and mitigation.
Starting at 1:00pm, the Navarre CERT Amateur Radio Club will be participating in the annual
Amateur Radio Relay League Field Day, where hams demonstrate the emergency
communications capabilities that are the foundation of amateur radio, by operating on noncommercial
power and contacting other hams all over the US and beyond. Anyone (including
you!) can sit in and make radio contacts under the guidance of a licensed ham.
Don’t forget that Navarre Park also features a children’s playground and splash pad, as well as
the Butterfly House. The Navarre CERT information booth has children’s disaster preparedness
materials such as activity books, comic strips and puzzles, including a popular word search. So
bring the kids along!
You may have seen members of Navarre CERT assisting the Sheriff’s Office and community
organizations in non-disaster situations. But the team’s real mission is to teach disaster
preparedness, assist emergency services agencies in responding to disasters, and helping in the
recovery from disasters. CERT is a volunteer organization under the Citizen Corps program of
the Dept of Homeland Security. Navarre CERT is a non-profit corporation and needs the
financial support of the community in order to serve Navarre and other areas of Santa Rosa and
surrounding counties.

As we look back on 2009, we see that we've experienced tremendous
growth. Trees Plus developed many new clients, trained new employees
and added new services. Not only did the Trees Plus family experience
this growth, but my own family did as well. Our second child Robert
Hilton was born and as our grandmother says, "A baby brings his own
luck." He not only brought us luck, but inspired us to cultivate a new
mindset at Trees Plus.
'Trees Plus Outdoors' was born and we began consulting with our
clients more and serving as a "mini-property manager" for residential
clients, just as we do for our commercial and military clients. In
2009, we grew our landscaping division with very little promotion. The
response we received from our clients was overwhelming. We added
landscaping, irrigation, hardscape installation and soil treatments,
which when coupled with our tree care division completes a basket of
outdoor services!
Our clients aren't just calling us anymore to 'trim their trees.' They
call us to update and upgrade their outdoor living space with new
landscaping and irrigation. They call us to help them save their
favorite tree they planted 15 years ago when they bought their
house. Our clients know Trees Plus will provide exceptional service
and follow up not only for their tree care needs, but for all of their
outdoor needs.
In 2010, we partnered with a revolutionary company to offer Water
Management Solutions. This company developed the award winning water
conservation technology that is used at the new Cowboys Stadium, the
Capitol Building and Buckingham Palace. We are the only certified
installer of this technology in the Florida Panhandle.
We learned about this technology at one of the many seminars and
workshops we attended in 2009. We were also introduced to some
exciting and highly effective treatments for trees and shrubs that are
extremely beneficial to their health. Trees Plus is committed to our
continuing education and bringing cutting edge solutions to our
clients and their outdoor spaces.
