2008 proved to be a whopper of a hurricane season...
Those who live in the Hurricane Prone areas learned well the importance of preparation, it is unfortunate that so many had to suffer. Thru preparation comes peace of mind!
Don't forget, the hurricanes of 2004 and 2005 proved that the Federal Government can easily become overwhelmed. Their goal is to take care of the big picture, which can leave some family units on their own for the first days and weeks of the relief response.
The Well Prepared Citizen is the book that will assist you in making the necessary plans to insure the wellfare and wellbeing of your family and loved ones during this time period.
Think about this:
Is your Bug-Out-Bag ready to go at a moments notice? Toiletries, change of clothes, medicines, food, water, etc.
If the government imposes a quarantine for the bird flu, or any other reason, does your plan allow you food, water, and communications appropriate to get you thru?
If a natural disaster or a terrorist attack were to cause an industrial accident which relaases a toxic plume, evacuation may not be possible. What is your plan for this situation?
Will your medical kit take care of your family? Most store bought kits will not come close to providing the care your family deserves.
Do you have proper equipment? The majority of the 72 hour kits may help you survive, but when was the last disaster taken care of in 72 hours.
Do you have a plan for evacuation, and does it include contacts and communications?
If your family is separated prior to evacuation, what is your plan to communicate your location.
The Well Prepared Citizen is the book that will answer these questions and many more!
