The City of Morgantown is looking for approximately 20 volunteers to assist with an airport emergency exercise on Thursday, July 16, from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m.
Volunteers will participate in a realistic emergency response scenario featuring an active hostage situation involving multiple public safety agencies. This is a planned training exercise designed to help first responders and partner agencies practice coordinating their response during a complex emergency.

The exercise may be intense or emotionally uncomfortable for some individuals.
