Disaster Preps: Week 18

If you live in an area prone to earthquakes, this week's purchases will help keep items in your house secure.

Weekly Purchases:

• Child-proof cabinet latches
• Double-sided tape or Velcro-type fastener to secure moveable objects.

Action Items:

• Pack a "go-kit" for evacuations. This would be a good opportunity to consolidate a number of the items you've been purchasing.  Consider all options, including personalized go-kits for each family member.  Don't forget to add coloring books and crayons to children's packs.
• Halloween is coming up this week.  Make sure the kids are visible and have good flashlights.
