Volunteers Needed: SBA Emergency Drill

Authored on
Body

Santa Barbara Airport (SBA) is hosting their triennial full-scale emergency drill on Tuesday, September 23, 2025 from 7:00 AM-1:00 PM. This hands-on exercise, conducted in accordance with Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations, provides the Airport, mutual aid partners, and emergency responders the opportunity to train for a real aircraft emergency in a safe and controlled environment.

SBA is seeking members of the community to participate in this drill as volunteer "victims." Volunteers will receive moulage (realistic makeup to simulate injuries) and play an important role in helping first responders practice and improve emergency response. Volunteers must be 18 years or older to participate.

To volunteer, please fill out the Volunteer Application.
