As we do most mornings, we’re taking a look at some highlights of the day/night ahead, from the WSB West Seattle Events calendar. First, two neighborhood meetings, including one with a timely agenda:

NORTH DELRIDGE NEIGHBORHOOD COUNCIL: 6:30 pm, Delridge Library (Delridge/Brandon). As announced by chair Karrie Kohlhaas, this one’s focused on emergency preparedness:

Imagine not being prepared when an earthquake, tsunami, mudslides, terrorist attack, or other disaster situation strikes, cutting you off from the rest of Seattle, from provisions, from electricity and other city services like waste management, police, fire dept…

We want Delridge to be prepared and in good shape if disaster comes our way, so we found the best people to come talk with us:

Debbie Goetz, City of Seattle Emergency Preparedness Training Specialist
Cindi Barker, West Seattle Hubs Coordinator and WS neighbor
Ben Canfield, neighbor volunteer creating a Delridge Disaster Preparedness Plan

* Learn how you will know what’s going on if you can’t use your phone or computer
* Find out what supplies you should have on hand at all times
* Meet an amazing neighbor who organized a communication plan for West Seattle
* Ask questions of city and local organizers so you can empower your family
* Find out how you can get more involved in shaping a plan for Delridge
* Leave with information that could save your life or a neighbor’s life …

Looking forward to meeting many of you for the first time. Meetings are upbeat and I try to keep them moving. We must be done by 7:45 because the library closes, so no worries that this is going to take your whole night! Hope to see you there!
