Does your family have a disaster plan? Would you know what to do in a wildfire, an earthquake or some other major disaster? Does your family have a communications plan if you are separated from each other?
Join us at the Moraga-Orinda Fire District's (MOFD) Spring Open House and Hot Dog Lunch from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, April 14 at Station 45 (33 Orinda Way, Orinda) to learn how easy it is to put together your own family disaster plan and how you can make your home less vulnerable to wildfires. We will help you design your family disaster plan, and answer your questions about how you can "harden" your home to reduce the risk of fire, especially for homes in the Wildland Urban Interface or WUI.
Get information from fire officials, police, emergency managers and other experts on how you can prepare your home and your family. Kids and adults can meet their local firefighters, tour the fire trucks, and gather important fire safety and disaster preparedness information from MOFD and other local agencies. Smokey the Bear and Sparky the Fire Dog will make special guest appearances throughout the day. The hot dog lunch is sponsored by firefighters at Local 1230. All proceeds will be donated to the Muscular Dystrophy Association.
It has been said that during a disaster "no plan will become your plan." Don't get caught without one! For more information, please contact the Moraga-Orinda Fire District at (925) 258-4525 or visit our website at www.mofd.org.
