Fires, floods, earthquakes, snow and ice storms, explosions: Are you protected?
The West Howe Sound Community Association will ask that question at a general meeting on Wednesday, Feb. 22.
The focus is on Area F, where a fire in Dogpatch wiped out a family home last year and where 45 families lost power for 18 hours during the recent snowstorm. Experts will talk about protecting yourself in a disaster and what kind of protection you can expect from the regional district.
The West Howe Sound Community Association meets several times a year to discuss issues important to residents of Area F. The meeting on Feb. 22 takes place at 7 p.m. in Eric Cardinall Hall, Shirley Macey Park, 930 Chamberlin Road, West Howe Sound.
