Disaster supply kit time

MAT-SU— Dark days, high winds, cold temps are upon us. It's time to pull out the disaster supply kit and see if the flashlight batteries work, if the water has any bugs in it. Or it's time to actually buy a tote and put your supply kit together, at last. You'll be glad you did when the lights go out in a big storm. In one place, you will have emergency supplies to keep you and your family comfortable.

Next week, the monthly Borough radio commercial points listeners to http://www.ready.gov

It's a great web site because it's simple and thorough. Ready.gov walks you through the steps of getting a kit, making a plan, and being informed.
