Emergency Preparedness & Summer Camps
When the 35W Bridge collapsed, what did it take to get Navy salvage divers to help with the recovery? This week the Navy and Air Force are here to talk about the resources they and the Army can and have tapped to help Minnesota in emergencies.
We’ll also take a look at the summer camp options available for military kids. Guests include:
- Navy Capt. Rich Henderson and Air Force Col. Tom Simonet
- Army Master Sgt. Rich Kemp of the Minnesota National Guard Youth Camp
- Kia Harries of Operation Military Kids
- Scott Lear of Burl Oaks Golf Course
This week’s veteran is Marine Corporal Nathan Warner of Minneapolis. Serving during the initial invasion of Iraq in 2003, Nathan was responsible for retrofitting the unit’s unarmored Humvees and overseeing their maintenance. Nathan now has a Bachelor’s Degree in International Business from the University of St. Thomas and has studied at the University of London and Tecnológico de Monterrey in Mexico. He has leadership experience in Sales, Marketing, Quality Assurance and Training.
Nathan and hundreds of others are ready to work hard on their next mission. Can we Hire Minnesota’s Heroes? To connect with Nathan contact the South Minneapolis WorkForce Center at 612-821-4009 or to learn more at: PositivelyMinnesota.com/Veterans.
