The Northshore Emergency Management Coalition (NEMCo) announces a free Community Preparedness Fair for October 11, 2025, at Third Place Commons in Lake Forest Park. The event runs from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM and aims to equip residents with vital skills for emergency preparedness. As disasters can strike unexpectedly, having a personal and family plan is essential, especially when first responders may take weeks to reach affected areas. Attendees can participate in sessions covering first aid basics, water storage, sanitation, and how to prepare go-bags. Highlights include live demonstrations of fire suppression methods and drone technology, making the event suitable for all ages.

Residents can also engage with NEMCo's Emergency Manager, volunteers, and local vendors while having a chance to win raffle prizes. The fair emphasizes community involvement, urging attendees to bring their neighbors to foster collective preparedness. This initiative aligns with broader efforts to enhance local resilience against emergencies.
