Worcester
Emergency Preparedness
Community Day
- FREE EVENT
October 22, 2005, Saturday
at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints
67 Chester Street, Worcester, MA 01605

 


Our first event was met with a great success. The National Guard, Worcester Police and Fire Departments attended as well as showing off their vehicles to the kids.

We hope the next event on November 12th in several areas closer to Boston will experience the same kind of success.

Thanks goes to all those people who helped make this event successful and helped provide so much information to the community. We look forward to having more of these events in the future.
