Saturday Preparedness Challenge Set a timer for 10 minutes. That's it. Try to knock out a few of these tasks: ✓ Charge your power banks. ✓ Update your emergency contacts. ✓ Take photos of any new insurance cards or documents. ✓ Confirm your family's meeting location if phones fail. ✓ Check the batteries in your flashlight. ✓ Make sure your vehicle has at least half a tank of gas. ✓ Review your evacuation route and an alternate route. ✓ Identify one neighbor you could help and one neighbor who could help you. ✓ Save an out-of-state contact who can serve as a family check-in point during an emergency. ✓ Make a list to restock any medications, pet supplies, or other essentials you rely on regularly. Ten minutes today can save you hours of stress later. Preparedness isn't built in a day. It's built in small decisions made before they become urgent. The goal is never perfection. The goal is being a little more ready tomorrow than you were yesterday. Easy peasy!
