SurCATS was founded in 1998 in response to the El Nino disaster situation in Big Sur. As a result of the Basin Complex Fire this year, the organization has re-invented itself and is focused upon providing clear and accurate information about the dynamic situations Big Sur will face this winter. The mission of the organization is to provide the community with a trusted information source for current, accurate information on disaster related topics. SurCATS committee leaders include: Barbara Ray Daughters, Nadine Clark, and Lisa Goettel, who are coordinating closely with CERT Team leaders Dick Ravich and Mary Trotter. Frank Pinney of the Big Sur Fire Brigade and representatives from involved agencies and local organizations.
There is a growing need for volunteers, housing and accurate information as Big Sur faces the Basin Complex fire.
This site is like a community bulletin board matching those in need with those who want to help. We are running this on the honor system and counting on the basic good nature of everyone to post only information that is known to be true.
