Check your disaster supplies

 

 Take this opportunity to think about emergency preparedness. Remember the following tips:

1.      Check your smoke alarm and carbon monoxide detector batteries. Test both.

2.      Check your disaster supplies:

         Be sure to have enough emergency water and food to sustain everyone in your household including pets for several days

        Check expiration dates on emergency food

        Check expiration date on medications

        Test the batteries in flashlights, radios, etc.

        Make sure copies of important documents are current

        Ensure your extra change of clothing and shoes still fit - especially for growing kids

        Review your household emergency plans

        Review the evacuation routes out of your neighborhood - everyone should know at least 2 routes out
