Being prepared for a natural disaster or other emergency is important. To prepare for such an event, you and your family should make sure you each have a go bag kit with basic necessities. Here is a list of things that I keep in mine, along with links where you get your own.
I encourage you to have at least one Go Bag per person, and one per vehicle as well.
Remember to rotate perishable items like snacks and bottled water every year.
