How does your family emergency plan look? Have you looked at it in the past year? Have you even started to put it down on paper? Here is a link for an online family plan. We will go into this plan in detail on January 4th. Bring what you have.

So this year, meetings for Hancock County EMA volunteers and COAD are going to focus on the basics: Make a Plan, Assemble or Update Your Supplies, Make Your Home Safer, and other topics. Since for many of you this will be a review, the format will be more round table discussion than slide show.
Invite your friends and neighbors.
