A Message from the UUS:E Emergency Management Team
“Everyone evacuate the building!” Hearing this during a Sunday Service, you will know the Emergency Response Plan has been activated. But what do you do? If it happens during a Sunday service:
- You must leave the building, using both exits out to the parking lot.
- Go to your car and remain in your car.
- If you have a child on the garden level, you may assemble at a safe distance from the front of the building so that your child can brought to you.
- If you are on the Garden Level when the alarm is sounded, RE children and staff are to exit the building at the nearest exit and assemble at a safe distance from the building.
- Adult RE leaders will bring small groups of children at intervals around to the front of the building to be reunited with their parents.
Very important: fire apparatus must come down the exit ramp—STAY IN YOUR CARS AND DON’T DRIVE OUT, CLOGGING THE WAY FOR RESPONDERS! Wait for fire officials to let you know you can leave.
PS—a fire drill is coming soon to a Sunday Service near you. Be ready!!!
