Don Fisher, Southold Emergency Management Committee Co-coordinator of Communications, will give an overview of how residents can best prepare their families and homes to respond to weather events and other emergencies in case of prolonged power outages.

If shelters are required, volunteers will be needed to help operate them. There is an upcoming “How to Staff a Shelter Course” scheduled to be held in Orient on May 18th. Please consider taking the course to help your neighbors.
