 2010 - EARTHQUAKE SAFETY FAIR --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Many Thanks to All of the Volunteers that helped plan, setup, and present their "Be Prepared" message to the public. It was your efforts that made my Boy Scout Eagle Project such a Great Success. We heard from the Mayor, the Fire Marshal, Emergency Management Professionals and many others that they would like to see this be an annual event. As a result of this request our BSA Troop 189 will be organizing the Be Prepared Puget Sound Emergency Preparedness Fair May 22, 2011 (Rosehill Community Center in Mukilteo) It would be awesome if every Boy Scout Troop in every city organized an event like this. That would really get out the "Be Prepared" message. I added pictures of the Fair to this site on the "2010 - Pictures of the Fair" page. Thanks again to Everyone!!!!!! Matt Carlson (BSA Troop 189 - Eagle Project) --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Date: January 23rd, 2010
Time: 10:00am – 4:00pm Location: Harbour PT. Fire Station, Mukilteo, WA Free Public Event
