The WaterBob and similar products allow you to safely store water in a bathtub or other containment device, free from contaminants at a moments notice. Simply open the bladder in your bathtub and hook up to the faucet and fill. Stores up to about 100 gallons of water. This should be done at the first sign of problems to ensure that the city water is clean and available.

The Amateur Radio Emergency Service® (ARES) consists of licensed amateurs who have voluntarily registered their qualifications and equipment, with their local ARES leadership, for communications duty in the public service when disaster strikes.

RACES operators are:
Licensed Radio Amateurs
Certified by a civil defense agency

The Boy Scouts of America's Fieldbook is a great source of information on outdoor skills, skills that will be important during survival situations. I prefer the 1960s and 1970s vintages, but the Fieldbook of today is still a great resource.

The Fieldbook is written in a simple to understand format, one that can be understood by the still mold-able brains of boys 11-18 years old (if you've ever been an Adult Scout Leader, you'll understand that last point). Why is this important? Because the Fieldbook is a great resource for helping your kids and/or less experienced adults, get ready for survival situations.

• Remember, if you don't prepare your family, particularly your kids, then you are not prepared.

To maximize your effectiveness in a survival situation, you can't do it all on your own, and even a little help from a 12 year old could turn out to be key to survival of the family.

Get the Fieldbook here: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00JKY73L6/re ... TF8&btkr=1

The Fieldbooks are pretty easy to find in used bookstores and online, and don't seem to carry the huge prices associated with the older Boy Scout Handbooks that are near and dear to BSA collectors. Amazon had a used Fieldbook for $4 shipped.
