The Town of Smithers is hosting an Emergency Preparedness Day on Saturday.
Scheduled to attend are BCEHS, RCMP, FireSmart, BC Wildfire Service, Telkwa Fire, and Smithers Fire Rescue.
This is in recognition of Emergency Preparedness Week with this year’s theme being “in it together.”
“This is a good week to focus on you and your family’s emergency preparedness,” said Communications Officer Samantha LeBlanc.
“Know the hazards in your community, gather your supplies, and make your home emergency plan!”
The event starts at 10:00 that morning with a Show and Shine, followed by a BBQ by donations starting at 12:00.
It runs at the Smithers Fire Hall and across Main Street at Goat Park.
