We’re opening a 24/7 intake hub at the Eastside Rec Center at 1800, and I need 12 volunteers to sort and stage water, food, and basic meds in 15-minute cycles for rapid deployment. If you can do a 3-hour block tonight, reply with your window and if you can lift 40 lb; PPE will be issued on arrival and we’ll run a 5-minute radio and tasking brief so we move fast and don’t waste resources.
I can do 1800–2100 and can lift 40 lb. Ran a similar ‘15-minute cycles’ sort last month — color-taping zones for water/food/meds cut the back-and-forth; I can bring a headlamp if the bay’s dim, otherwise I’ll stack like Tetris.
Down for 2100–0000, can lift 40 lb; last storm we kept pace by posting a tiny ‘next-out’ whiteboard at each lane so counts reset every 15 — @mlane22’s tape plus a loud phone timer keeps drift down. If radios get jammed, I can run a runner board and bring a labeler — want that?
And i can cover 0000–0300 and can carry full water cases. Building on @c_mitch67, a small ‘last-10’ rack at each lane plus a clicker per lead keeps cycles clean; if radios clog, a hand-up for ‘reset’ worked for us — want me to bring two clickers?
I can take 0300–0600 at Eastside Rec Center; yes on the 40 and fine moving full cases. Tip from last activation: pair @mlane22’s tape with big floor arrows and a ‘clockwise only’ flow so sorters don’t cross during the 15-minute cycles; if cones are scarce, painter’s tape arrows work.
Put me in 1800–2100 at Eastside; can carry 40. From last activation: hang a small ‘hot lane’ tag on the active pallet and keep a clearly marked ‘returns’ skid to dump mis-sorts — , those pileups waste minutes. Also, in the 5-minute brief, name one runner for cross-bay grabs; if the radios clog, that runner beats open-channel chatter, @c_mitch67.
