What's up in Stallion Springs?

 


The Race is On

Race Communications is racing right along toward providing fiber optic service to Stallion Springs. Race team member Raul Alcaraz provided an update on their progress at the July 21 Board of Directors meeting. Alcaraz reported that as a safety issue Southern California Edison is replacing some substandard poles in the area and Race is putting in some temporary poles along Banducci Road and Stallion Springs Drive. Approximately 40 temporary poles will be installed and remain until SCE replaces their substandard poles. In the meantime, Race has crews all over Stallion pulling in the fiber getting ready to serve the over 350 residents that have already expressed interest in the gigabit fiber service. To get more information on the service that will be offered go to http://www.race.com/tehachapi/ .

CERT

It’s going to be a busy month for the Stallion Springs CERT team. The regular monthly meeting will be held at 6:30 p.m. on Aug. 5 at the Stallion Springs CERT Headquarters at the corner of Stallion Springs Drive and Bold Venture Drive. This month the subject will be Search & Rescue.  Non-CERT members are welcome to attend and observe.

Aug. 8 is the “Cheers to Charity” event at Veritas on Tucker Road in Tehachapi. The Stallion Springs CERT Program has been selected as a recipient of a grant from Cheers to Charity.  Part of our obligation is to provide volunteers to help at this event. You can sign up at the Aug. 5 meeting or by calling (661) 412-CERT, or email CERT 1 stallionspringscert1@gmail.com

On Aug. 22, Shelter in Place training provided by the Red Cross at the Stallion Springs EOC from 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m.  In the recent rain event, it became obvious how important it is for us to be self-sufficient in the event that a disaster cuts Stallion Springs off from other parts of Tehachapi.  The Red Cross has made the equipment available for us to open an Emergency Evacuation Shelter.  This training session will prepare us to do so.
