Disaster Preparedness for Businesses Seminar

As a business owner, have you ever wondered what you should do if a natural disaster happened during business hours? What do you do with your staff? With your customers? There are countless photos on social media showing the damage in businesses after the 7.0 earthquake that just occurred in Alaska. Not to mention the roads that have buckled, preventing any travel on those roadways. 
 
Here is your opportunity to gather information to assist in building your own disaster preparedness plan! This promises to be two hours packed with information! Join us on Saturday, January 12 from 10am to Noon at the Dow's Prairie Grange, 3995 Dow's Prairie Road for a presentation by Angelina Gregorio. Angelina is a retired National Park Service Ranger who has worked in all aspects of Public Safety and Emergency Response.
