Ready! Set! Go!

The program Ready! Set! Go! was intorduced in May of this year to educate Southern California residents about what is now a year-round threat of wildfire.  This program is designed to gain public involvement in reducing life and property loss caused by wildfires.  Ready! Set! Go! has the following three steps:

Ready! Prepare yourself, your family and your property.

Set!  Monitor fire weather / activity and prepare to evacuate.

Go!  Leave early when directed to by public safety officials.

Ready! Set! Go! is endorsed by the Santa Barbara County Fire Chief’s Association to provide a strategic approach and a specific action plan to aid local, state and federal fire agencies in providing one unified message. Ready! Set! Go! is endorsed by the California Emergency Management Agency and FIRESCOPE. 

Listen to Community Alert, October 6, 2009: Chief Michael Mingee, Carpinteria-Summerland FPD and Captain David Sadecki, PIO, Santa Barbara County FD talk about “Read, Set, Go” on behalf of the Santa Barbara County Fire Chief’s Association.
