In an emergency, Sheriff, fire and medical response may be delayed.
Lakewood's Survive for 7 course is a fun and easy way to learn how to get organized and take care of yourself and your family in the immediate hours and days following a disaster.
This free class is recommended for everyone ages 12 and up.
You will learn about the types of regional emergencies and disasters that can impact Lakewood, and what you can do now to prepare yourself and your family to survive in the seven days following a disaster when help may not be available.
Sessions are held at the Burns Community Center and run about 90 minutes. Each session concludes with a free raffle for all in attendance at the end of the seminar.
Registration is not required.
Check the Public Safety Events calendar for upcoming Survive for 7 classes held throughout the year.
