The purpose of Poetslife is to promote the art and discipline of American Tactical Civil Defense for families and small businesses and to contribute practical American civil defense preparedness guidance for all Americans through my articles in the The American Civil Defense Association (TACDA.ORG) Journal of Civil Defense and leadership as the volunteer Vice President of TACDA.

Emergency Preparedness Expo

On September 23, 2017 I attended the Carroll County Emergency Preparedness Expo. It was hosted by the Carroll County Department of Public Safety.

There were police, emergency medical services, public safety, fire companies, electric companies, and static displays. The photos  provide a good representation of who participated.
Given the state of the world and the current threat matrix, every community should host an emergency preparedness like this once a year.
