August 17 & 18, 2024: Cleanup, Tornado Aftermath
-
The Warren County Ohio CERT team was requested to provide manpower to assist American Regulators in some post tornado clean-up near Blanchester Ohio. A barn that was damaged during the tornado collapsed recently and working together we were able to clear the land so the family could move forward to plant grass, build anew etc.

Wood was reclaimed, metal recycled, memento's saved, trash removed and residual wood burned.

In the end, Mission Accomplished!
