“Disasters in our area do not just include earthquakes. The Preparedness Expo will give the community tools to respond to a wide variety of large scale and personal disasters, including fire, flood, loss of employment and basic first aid need,” stated Emily Neilson, the expo coordinator.
The Emergency Preparedness Expo is a great place for the whole family to come and learn about what to do in an emergency in a fun and educational way. There will be safety demonstrations by organizations such as Be Ready Utah, USU Extension, the Southeast Utah Health Department and Red Cross.
