"PC-NET Comes to U.P." article featuring Vintage in The City of
University Place Headlines publication (5:9, September 2006, page

Our neighborhood may be on its own for at least three days
following a major disaster. Regular emergency services – fire, police,
and ambulance – will be overwhelmed by many calls. They will be unable
to respond to everyone’s needs right away. As neighbors, however, we can
learn to rely upon each other rather than upon these services.
Experience from past disasters shows that even though people want to
help each other after a disaster, they frequently don’t know what to do.
If our neighborhood is organized beforehand, we will know what to do,
allowing us to respond more quickly, calmly, and efficiently.
This quicker response
could …
- Save a life,
- Reduce the severity
of a neighbor’s injury, and
- Lessen the amount
of property damage our neighborhood might sustain.

Please Consider
Joining our
Vintage at University Place PC-NET Team
You will enjoy many
benefits from helping your neighbors become organized for disasters. One
of the greatest of these is peace of mind in knowing that you are not
alone after the disaster.
