Several years ago, the council published and distributed the “On Your Own” Emergency Preparedness Guide, which was sent to all LW households. The group is also responsible for the “Go Bag” flyer detailing what people need to have ready in case of an evacuation. A largely unseen accomplishment has been the “Boots On the Ground” disaster response guide that organizes local clubs into a coordinated responsive effort of neighbor helping neighbor in the event of an emergency disaster.
Most recently, the EIC helped to plan GRF’s Emergency Preparedness Expo, which brought residents the latest information in emergency preparedness through vendors and discussions of topics like solar power, emergency medication, gobags, pet preparation and more.
The EIC is actively recruiting residents to join in their activities to prepare and distribute emergency preparedness information, develop preparedness skills and guides, and to find new ways to promote community resilience in the face of adversity.
The next EIC meeting will be held in Building 5, Conference Room B, on Thursday, Nov. 9, at 1 p.m. Everyone is welcome to join in person or on Zoom. Contact eloyg@lwsb.com for the meeting link.
