PRINCE GEORGE—During this year’s Emergency Preparedness Week the City of Prince George is encouraging residents to prepare for a possible emergency.
Emergency Preparedness Week started on May third and goes until the ninth.
This year the City is particularly encouraging residents to create plans for their households in case of an emergency, by assembling an emergency kit, such as a grab-and-go 72-hour kit.
“Prince George is surrounded by forest and we have the Fraser and Nechako Rivers flowing through our community. This in itself requires us to be knowledgeable and a prepared public is our best resource in the event of an emergency.”—Lyn Hall, Mayor of Prince George
