Several parishioners at Immaculate Conception Parish were trained as CERT members. The weekend training taught the team how to be prepared in the event of a natural or manmade disaster in which first responders would be overwhelmed. The CERT training was conducted at Rock Community Headquarters. The training included light search and rescue, putting out small fires and how to triage injured victims. The Immaculate Conception CERT team can also be used at various parish functions as well as assisting firefighters in public education events.
