Be Ready!
September is National Preparedness Month
Prepare. Plan. Stay Informed.
Would you be ready in an emergency?
Would you be ready if there were an emergency?

Be prepared:
assemble an emergency supply kit, make your emergency plans, stay
informed, and get involved in helping your family, your business,
and your community be ready for emergencies.
National Preparedness Month is designed to encourage Americans to
take simple steps to prepare for emergencies in their homes,
businesses, and communities.
Whether it's September or any other month of the year, disaster can
strike at any time without warning. Be prepared for when - not if -
the next emergency will occur.
How prepared are you? Preparedness is a responsibility we all share.
Let's do our part.
