Body

The Clark County Commission on Aging continues the “Prepare in a Year” discussion series. This month’s topic is all about storing supplies. Experts from CRESA, Clark County’s regional emergency services agency, will discuss whether it’s best to have one 5-gallon jug of water, five 1-gallon jugs or several flats of small bottles. They also will talk about where an emergency kit should be stored. In this installment of the Commission’s emergency preparedness series, CRESA staff will provide practical ways to store and stage your emergency response kits and supplies and answer questions.

The meeting will be 4:30 pm Wednesday, June 12.

The preparedness series continues on July 17 and will focus on knowing your neighborhood.
