Here are some photos from the Local Emergency Planning Committee’s disaster drill, held Tuesday at South Arkansas Community College’s east campus.
The drill simulated a tour bus crash.
The mannequins you see in the photos are inflated with air and were bought through a FEMA grant. They served as the “patients.”

DISCLAIMER
*The “We Promise” slogan is now the official slogan for the City of El Dorado and may NOT be distributed or copied, unless, that is, you can come to our fair city and explain to us exactly why our leaders chose “We Promise”.
While we understand that “We Promise” sounds a bit like a brother and sister telling their parents that they will clean their rooms, it is, in reality, supposed to allude to the fact that children who attend the El Dorado School District can receive a free college education, thanks to Murphy Oil.
“We Promise” in no way, shape, form or fashion guarantees your right to happiness, or that you will one day receive a brand new Mercedes just for looking good and having a great smile.
“We Promise” does not guarantee that anyone in El Dorado can prevent your wife or husband from cheating on you.
“We Promise” does not guarantee that city leaders will make you look better in that little black dress without wearing an industrial-strength girdle. “We Promise” won’t get rid of that pesky facial hair, ladies.
And gentlemen, “We Promise” cannot erase that big beer gut.
“We Promise” doesn’t ensure that anyone from or affiliated with the City of El Dorado will ever come to clean your home, vacuum your bedroom or clean your fish tank.
“We Promise” in no way implies that anyone associated with El Dorado will mow your yard or tend to your garden.
“We Promise” will not make light beer taste like real beer.
Offer available to NEW residential customers in the El Dorado area. Offer expires on 9/30/20. Consumer discretion is advised.
