September 26th’s emergency expo at Yelm High School was a huge success. “Hope for the best, prepare for the worst”, was the theme for the event and important information about preparedness and surviving a disaster situation was shared with attendees.

If you missed the expo, you can find important information about emergency management on Thurston County’s website: www.co.thurston.wa.us/em.
