Emergency Preparedness Workshops

Saturday, October 18th

We're hosting two back-to-back workshops on Saturday, October 18th in the Highlands Recreation Center Multi-Purpose Room. These workshops are perfect for anyone looking to improve their home's emergency preparedness. Click the link at the top of the page to RSVP.

Workshop 1: Wildfire Preparedness: Hardening Your Home

Time: 10:00am to 11:00am

Learn essential strategies to protect your home from wildfire threats. This workshop will cover defensible space creation, home hardening techniques, and evacuation planning specific to our area's wildfire risks.

Workshop 2: Earthquake Preparedness: Earthquake Mitigation Devices

Time: 11:00am to 12:00pm

Guest speaker Megan Stanton will provide an informative presentation on earthquake mitigation devices. She'll discuss:

• The critical need for earthquake mitigation devices in our homes

• Different types of mitigation devices available

• Where to purchase these devices

• Step-by-step installation guidance

Sample mitigation devices will be available for hands-on demonstration, giving you the opportunity to see and handle the equipment before making purchases for your own home. We have a limited supply of mitigation devices that we will be distributing to qualified residents later in the year. You can sign up to be considered for this part of our project at the workshop.
