How Ready Is The City for The Next Emergency?
And how ready are you and your neighbors?
Mark your calendars to attend an educational meeting on Sat., March 19, 1-4 p.m. in the City Council Chambers, 7500 Maple Avenue. How to Survive the First 72 Hours in an Emergency, sponsored by the Public Safety Citizens Advisory Committee, will bring in experts from the American Red Cross and the Montgomery County Fire-Rescue Service to share their expertise.
The session will address how Takoma Park can best utilize its various organizations to help city residents in an emergency, whether natural or manmade.
Information about the recently formed Takoma Park Emergency Preparedness Committee will be available.
All Neighborhood Safety Contacts and citizen/community patrol members are encouraged to attend. Andy Keleman and Buddy Daniels, organizers of the session, would like every city organization to provide at least one representative to the meeting. Please think about any school, church, or business organization that you could invite to join you at this important meeting. Also make sure that your civic associations will be represented.
