Prepare now for emergencies
Emergencies can strike without warning. Prepare now to care for yourself and your loved ones during a crisis:
1. Sign up for CodeRED, our emergency notification system.
2. Review Are You Prepared?, our award-winning emergency guide.
3. Prepare an emergency kit using the instructions found in the emergency guide and our instructions for proper water storage.
4. Prepare a family plan so you'll know where to meet and how to contact your family in an emergency. Instructions for putting together a plan can be found at www.ready.gov/america/makeaplan/index.html.
5. Know why the sirens sound: they are not just for severe weather.
We can schedule a speaker to talk to your group about preparing for emergencies. Call Cass Fargo Emergency Management at 241-5859 or the American Red Cross at 364-1800, ext. 15.
