Scenario Village
Scenario Village is a 13,400 square foot "mock town" with several different building types owned and operated by the Portland Police Bureau. It is one of the most high quality training opportunities available to NET volunteers.
NET volunteers use the Village several times a year for comprehensive response exercises. In a typical single exercise, NETs conduct search and rescue, triage, medical treatment, radio communications, SUV management, and leadership/delegation to respond to moulaged "survivors". A single exercise at Scenario Village can include distinct neighborhood teams or members from many teams working together. Most exercises last an hour, and teams may have the option of: doing an initial run-through, pausing and assessing successes/deficiencies, and then resetting and exercising again to instill motor memory to successful response routines and practices.
