Mutual Support Groups (MSG's): A Local Idea - Page 31

The electricity issue is why I do more dehydrating and canning than freezing. I have a generator on my RV, that will work in an emergency, but that wont be a good long term fix. The wind generator sounds cool, but I'm not any good with electricity.

MSG 3 and others nearby, is it time for a BBQ and function check for your weapons? I have some ideas, and need your feedback...Summer is going fast and school starts in about a month.

Nothing formal, just food, conversation and some 100 yard shooting. The site is just west of bloomington and its very easy to find.

I will, I have a meetup page on preparedness and msg's. I'm looking to have 10 people interested, then I was going to schedule an initial meeting. Hopefully, I'll have something set up soon. I'm shooting for sometime in the next month or so and then some regular meetings.

I'm in Madison county, but Hamilton isn't too far of a drive, and I'd be more than willing to come down for something.

I'll let you know shortly of the plans.

To be really honest I like the idea of the MSG's, we have one huge flaw for this to work effectively so people can meet and get it working better.

Our grids are to wide, it's unrealistic to have a people in a MSG on 2 different sides if the state and have it work right. Otherwise more meetings would have taken place in each MSG.

It could be a 3x3 county grid style, or a 4 deep 3 wide, clusters of 4 or 5 counties to minimize driving.

Or this.....

7 MSG's with Marion county as it's own beast, greatest population center and only area that could mobilize to each MSG with not having to drive through more than 2 counties to reach all other 6.

What's everyone think?

I am also interested in this. I am in Area 2 (Marion County). I am Advanced Cardiac Life Support and CPR certified. I am not certified to teach but could help set something up for that. Would also be interested in getting together for other activities. I work at Eagle Creek Range as well.

MSG Members or interested parties

It would be a good idea to reach out to 5 other members in your area to see what MSG skills or ideas you have to offer, need or to train.

Either region plan works for me as a tool to find like minded persons. However most of the contacts have been under the original set up. So I don't want to see friendships or contacts dropped due to a new idea.

The MSG is to prepare, plan and support others.

What have you done with the MSG?
