The Citizen Preparedness Training event was held at the Taghkanic Fire House on Sept. 28th and hosted by the Taghkanic Climate Smart Communities Task Force, Columbia County Office of Emergency Management and NYS Dept of Homeland Security. Over 50 members of the community joined together to hear presentations from Lt. K. Kilner from the NYS Army National Guard and Master Sgt. J. Caoili from the NYS Air National Guard. Additional information was provided by officials from OEM and DHSES.
Taghkanic's own Tony LaSalvia welcomed attendees and introduced presenters who explained how to prepare for, respond to, and recover from disasters. Instructions were given on developing a family emergency plan, learning how to respond to natural and man-made disasters, and how to recover quickly after a disaster. Emergency preparedness backpacks were distributed to all to help prepare an emergency supply kit. . Thanks to everyone who came out to present and to learn. Your time and effort make a difference for all of us.
