Join us for an informative Civilian Response to Active Shooter Events (CRASE) training, led by King County Sheriffโs Officer Treadway. This critical session is designed to empower you with the knowledge and strategies to enhance your safety and readiness in the event of an active shooter situation.

- Situational awareness.
- Recognizing potential threats.
- Taking appropriate actions to protect yourself and others.
Why Attend?
While we hope never to encounter such emergencies, being prepared can save lives. Officer Treadway will walk us through practical tips and realistic scenarios to help you feel confident and equipped should the need arise.
Event Details:
- This session is open to all Maple Hills residents and community members.
- RSVP is not required but appreciated to help us prepare seating.
We hope to see you there as we work together to make our community safer and more resilient.
