Emergency Preparedness Week continues.
Yesterday we passed along a reminder from Beckwith Township that you should stock your emergency kit with seasonal items like sunscreen, bug spray, extra hats & gloves.
The Carleton Place Fire Department is also making some suggestions.
They say if you have pets, make sure you have supplies for them, too.
Also, consider adding comfort items for any children in your home, as well, such as colouring books and stuffed animals or other favourite toys.
Always restock your emergency kit after using anything from it, and check regularly to ensure any expiry dates haven’t passed.
For a list of kit essentials, visit: ontario.ca/BePrepared and personalize it to your needs.
