Fire Safety and Preparedness for Home, Apartment or Ranch

With the recent fires in Los Angeles, it has become imperative for each of us to be prepared for any type of fire and to do everything we can to prevent one in our homes or on our property. This presentation will be led by Scott Means, the city of Sparks’ emergency preparedness specialist, and Nikhil Narkhede from the Division of Forestry for the state of Nevada. They will provide insights to help everyone in our stake be prepared for a fire, whether they live in an apartment, a house, or on a ranch. We will also discuss emergency evacuations and how to prepare for such an event. Even a relatively minor earthquake here could disrupt our fire hydrant system and allow fires to spread. Scott spent three weeks in Los Angeles and will share firsthand accounts of what occurred there and how we can prepare in case something similar happens here.
