On Tuesday, November 15, from 7pm – 8:30pm, Meridian Park Neighborhood Association will host Brian Dixon, Director of Emergency Management in the City of Shoreline for a presentation and discussion on how to prepare for and handle a variety of disasters in your neighborhood.
Based on what has been learned from emergencies in Sandy Hook / Newtown, and Hurricane Katrina, Brian has developed a “Hub” program where individual neighbors and neighborhoods can easily come together and help each other.
Included in the discussion will be tips on how to stay safe in emergency and a “What's Next” program for how to get food, water and other resources after you run out of your own supplies. In addition he will discuss “Mapping Your Neighborhood” for effectively locating resources and people in disaster situations.
