The public should be aware that when they see Civil Defense people in the public that these people are probably volunteers and not paid staff members. We have been known to man posts for up to 15 hours continuously to insure the safety of the people who live or must pass through the district. During High surf season if the surf is predicted to be in excess of 20 ft you can expect to see Volunteers out all night patroling the beaches and the beachside roads. During Hurricane Season Volunteers are out from the time the emergency is declared until the emergency is declared over and sometime if there are damages well after that. Visitors are welcome.
Volunteers are especially welcome.
