Mountain Disaster Preparedness thanks Jeff Stone
By
Friday at Idyllwild’s new library Jeff Stone, 3rd District Supervisor of Riverside County, gave Mountain Disaster Preparedness a satellite dish, which will help the community connect with people off the “Hill” in case of a disaster. It will also keep our community informed about what is happening below us. MDP gave Stone a badge as an honorary member of the organization. Front row from left to right: Marcia Krull, Sherry Edwards, Francoise Frigola, Supervisor Jeff Stone, and Michael Feyder (MDP vice president). Back row: Ron Krull, Bob Edwards, Dick Goldberg and Dorian Paul.
