Hope everyone made it through the earthquake AND the hurricane. Wow, what a week! Now that the apocalypse-that-wasn't has passed, it's a good time to review your disaster preparedness plans (personally, my "go bag" is looking a little bit lonely right now). However, being a SOFA member prepared me to take on the worst of any crisis. First and foremost, a supply of rations is the number one thing you should have on hand to ride out the emergency. Shown here is my personal supply of emergency rations. I recommend a kit like this because it pretty much includes most of the necessities you'll need.
Following the storm, SOFA surveyed the devastation outside of SOFA HQ and immediately set to work helping neighbors and friends with cleanup activities. The work was hard, but very necessary to put our beloved neighborhood back in order.
Hope everyone managed to make it out of Irene unscathed. The SOFA brotherhood runs deep so if you need us to help with disaster preparedness or cleanup after an emergency, you know who you can trust.
