CERT-ainly...Fanwood Mayor Colleen Mahr, approaching podium, honors uniformed members of Fanwood’s Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) for recently completing their training in first aid, fire safety, search and rescue and other skills. “It really takes a strong commitment,” the mayor said. “There really is no greater treasure than the men and women who step up and give back to the community.” Mayor Mahr said CERT volunteers serve as “an additional resource to our trained personnel” during a crisis or emergency situation.
