The training, skills refresher and educational tool will be at the Aug. 1 meeting of the Hancock County COAD (Community Organizations Active in Disasters). The community is welcome, as well as local officials, professional responders and emergency managers.

Disasterville is a table-top, game-like activity simulating a town set up with small buildings and figurines.
