The Township of Wilmot will rally its forces in the face of a community wide disaster or emergency, but residents need to be ready too.
Do you have a 72 hour emergency kit in case you have to leave abruptly or shelter in place in your home during a wide scale emergency? You should have a kit ready to go in either case.
The kit should include:
- flashlight and batteries
- radio and batteries or crank radio
- spare batteries
- first aid kit
- candles and matches/lighter
- extra car keys and cash
- important papers
- food and bottled water
- clothing and footwear
- blankets or sleeping bags
- toilet paper and other personal supplies
- medication
- backpack/duffle bag
- whistle
- playing cards/games
