Clean Medicine in Dirty Places – Emergency Trauma Care
Instructor: Joe Gennusa at Prepper Camp.
When disaster strikes, emergency medicine looks very different. Clean Medicine in a Dirty Place teaches practical, real-world medical decision-making when hospitals are overwhelmed, inaccessible, or no longer the safest option. This class focuses on initial assessment and immediate response. This class covers the basics of limb injury care, bleeding control, infection prevention, and stabilization using limited resources. Attendees will learn how to care for injuries at home when appropriate, how to reduce infection risk in unsanitary conditions, and how to discern between injuries that can be safely managed off grid versus those requiring higher-level trauma care or secondary medical facilities. When in chaotic conditions, knowing when not to go to the hospital can be just as critical as knowing when to go.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) – the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly -
at Prepper Camp.
Save $25.00/Ticket Now at www.PrepperCamp.com

In this class, we will discuss the effects of Artificial Intelligence (AI) on your life today and in the coming years. We will explore the potential good and bad consequences of the increasing use of AI. The science fiction depictions of AI will soon no longer be fiction. From HAL in 2001 a Space Odyssey to the Terminator, these applications of AI are becoming reality.
One theme that is not common in movies is the potential for tyranny because of AI’s ability to monitor and profile individuals. Big Brother has grown up and he has all your personal data to train AI to track you. In this class you will learn the ways that AI is used to monitor, control, and manipulate you. Starting with your cell phone metadata, it will know who you call, what food you like, where you shop, what you buy, what you search for on the internet, what websites you visit, and who you associate with. From there it, will control and manipulate you by what search results you see, who’s posts you get to see on social media, and filtering what news it wants you see and hiding the rest.
Most importantly, you will learn how to stop giving your private information away and to reduce your digital footprint starting today! You will learn how to break the connections they are using to connect the dots, thereby limiting what AI can learn about you going forward.

Preparing for an EMP (Electromagnetic Pulse)
Jeff Yago: Engineer, Government Contractor, EMP Expert and Author

(Come to the CERT Meeting: Saturday June 13th 2026, 12:00 pm (Noon), At the Rutherford County Annex Building, 289 N. Main St., Rutherfordton, NC)

Jeff Yago is an EMP expert and has been contracted by the US military to evaluate the existing EMP protection at multiple US overseas missile facilities, and to recommend shielding upgrades required.

In this EMP Preparedness class, participants will gain a complete understanding of how electromagnetic pulses (EMPs) are created and what are the expected consequences. The presentation will cover the potential threats, possible players and the scenarios that may create such events and how the rest of the world might respond. After that we will cover the aftermath and the infrastructure that will be affected. Then Jeff will discuss the direct implications for individuals and how the general population might react.

For the second half we will shift our focus and discuss how to prepare effectively for such an event. We will cover what supplies might be required and the preparations one should take to prepare for such a world. This will include how to protect your electronics with EMP shielding bags and finally we will go step by step building and testing a Faraday cage.
