The Burlingame Neighborhood Network is hosting a program Saturday, March 9, for residents to learn from local safety experts how to receive emergency alerts, connect with family and friends, tap into a volunteer Ham radio network, decide what to include in your “go bag” and evacuate safely following disaster.
Called “Ready, Set, Go! What’s in Your Go Bag? When and Where to Go,” the program will take place from 9 a.m. to 10:30 a.m. in the Lane Room at the Burlingame Public Library, 480 Primrose Road. Admission is free and complimentary coffee and refreshments will be served.
Representatives from BNN, the Central County Fire Department, the Burlingame Police Department, Burlingame’s Ham Radio Network and the California Highway Patrol will offer tips and answer questions.
Founded in 2006, the Burlingame Neighborhood Network encourages neighbors to connect with one another to build a sense of community, become informed about disaster preparedness and support one another during emergencies.
