Disasters such as earthquakes, floods, fires, and toxic spills are striking everywhere.
We need to be prepared to both evacuate and/or shelter in place.
The Community Center Parking Lot will have emergency vehicles and personnel from CHP, St. Elizabeth Hospital, Cal Fire, the Police Department, etc. The inside booths will have representatives from many agencies such as Far Northern Regional Center, State Council on Developmental Disabilities, 211, Red Cross, Tehama County Health Services, etc. The many agencies often have free giveaways of items which can be used in the participants’ Go-Bags, such as toothbrushes, sunscreen, note pads, pens, and information pamphlets.
Our success in past years has been due to the participation of all our community partners. We have had upwards to 250-300 people in attendance and anticipate that we will be able to reach that many this year.
