September: National Preparedness Month

September: National Preparedness Month is an educational safety workshop hosted by local emergency personnel to help residents prepare for unexpected disasters. The Morrisville Fire Department and local emergency response teams will lead the session, sharing straightforward strategies to keep your household safe during severe weather and other emergencies. This free one-hour session takes place in the community room at the Morrisville library, which offers plenty of paved parking directly in front of the building. The presentation is best suited for parents and school-aged children who can sit through a short presentation, and every attending household will receive a complimentary starter emergency bag. You do not need to bring any supplies, but keeping a notepad handy for local emergency contact numbers is helpful. It is a smart addition to your weekend schedule because it offers a low-pressure environment to tackle important safety conversations. You can teach your children who to look for in an emergency while checking a critical task off your household to-do list.
