Building a Household Emergency Kit

🌪️ Are You Prepared?

Join us on Thursday, June 26th at 6 PM for a free class focused on building a household emergency kit—just in time for hurricane season! With Tropical Storm Andrea already stirring in the Atlantic as our first named storm of 2025, there's no better time to get ready.

🧰 In this hands-on session, you'll:

- Learn how to build a complete emergency kit

- Plan ahead for evacuation or shelter-in-place scenarios

- Get tips on food safety and simple meal prep during power outages

- Understand the basics of medical and household preparedness

🎁 Bonus: All attendees will be entered to win an AM/FM/NOAA hand crank weather radio with a built-in flashlight and USB charger!

✅ The class is free, but registration is required—space is limited, so don’t wait!
