Hurricane Safety Checklist

As the prospect of a hurricane coming into New England looks like a real possibility, many are asking what steps can be taken to prepare. To access a Red Cross Hurricane Safety Checklist, please visit our webpage at www.vermontredcross.org.

At the Vermont & the New Hampshire Valley American Red Cross, we too are working to prepare. This includes connecting with our disaster services volunteers to check on availability, checking in with a number of the facilities we use as shelters, and assessing what equipment and assets may be needed. Last night, Chief Response Officer Tim Stetson was interviewed by WPTZ-TV. Click here to see that story: http://www.wptz.com/video/28967298/detail.html.
