What's important to the Villages Lightning Study Group is that everyone have the facts so they can make an informed decision based on their individual tolerance for risk and based on their specific situation vs someone with no experience saying these systems don't work.
Although our fire and police and other first responders are critical to our safety and great people, they are not all trained in some of these topics.
Becasue of this the study group has given presentations to some of our first responders but not everyone is trained so if you have questions please reach out to us and we can provide whatever factual and actual case information that we have collected specifically here in the Villages on the topic.

Very helpful info for a highly complex topic - thanks!
Good idea to help educate first responders. (At an incident near us, a fire fighter was quoted to say lighting rods don't work.)
