How Not to Freeze When the Lights Go Out

Macey's Little Theater is presenting another FREE emergency preparedness class given by Jon and Kylene Jones (yourfamilyark.com) These classes are ALWAYS filled up fast but I have reserved 10 places for our Wheat Watchers group. Check your calendars and post a comment or e-mail me if you'd like to attend. I will cancel any unfilled spots.

How Not To Freeze When the Lights Go Out

"Back for Part 4 of our emergency preparedness series, Jon and Kylene Jones will teach us how they and their eleven kids stayed warm and well when the electricity was out for four days. A wealth of information we ALL need to know"

PS-I will be out of town. So someone will need to take good notes for me! Macey's does repeat this series so watch for more classes and reserve us some spots :)

Group Purchasing

One of the greatest benefits we gain by working together as a group is the ability to purchase in bulk quantities at a discounted price. We have recently begun working with Emergency Essentials and Macey's and will continue to work with Chirine Wadsworth at Alpine Food Storage. Look for more information about these programs in their own post.

As we assemble various kits and prepare in specific areas, we will organize specific group purchases to acquire those necessary items (for instance upcoming pandemic preparedness.) The group purchase items will hopefully be much less than one person could purchase retail and I would encourage all to participate if you're able to.

While this is a great opportunity to acquire food storage and emergency preparedness items, remember that we should not get into debt to purchase these things. First focus on getting out of debt and then prepare for other emergencies.

If you have questions or suggestions for group purchases, PLEASE COMMENT. If you're needing it, chances are good that someone else is needing it also.
