WHAT – Following her successful July 31 Sea Cliff workshop that drew 100 registrations, Nassau County Legislature Minority Leader Delia DeRiggi-Whitton (D – Glen Cove) is pleased to announce that the New York State Citizen Preparedness Corps will return to District 11 for an Emergency Preparedness Workshop at the Glenwood Landing American Legion Post 336 on Wednesday, Oct. 1.
Presented by the State’s Citizen Preparedness Corps, the workshops equip residents with the tools and resources to prepare for any type of natural or man-made disaster, respond accordingly, and recover as quickly as possible to pre-disaster conditions. Each family participating will receive a free Citizen Preparedness Corps Response Starter Kit filled with emergency prep essentials like a radio, flashlight, batteries, freshwater packets, food packs, heavy-duty gloves, tarp, emergency blanket, water container, glow stick and whistle.
“The overwhelming response to our Sea Cliff workshop made it clear that our community is eager to protect themselves and their families, and I am thrilled that New York State has agreed to host this upcoming emergency workshop in Glen Head,” Minority Leader DeRiggi-Whitton said. “With hurricane season in full swing, I encourage you to register today and join us at the Glen Head American Legion to gain knowledge and resources that will keep you safe and give you peace of mind in the days to come.”
