Emergency Preparedness Week 2025
Are you prepared for an emergency? Is your community prepared
Join the Lunenburg County Regional Emergency Management Organization (REMO) for Emergency Preparedness Week (EPW) from May 4 to 10, 2025, and help our communities become better prepared to face an emergency while promoting your services and products at the same time!
The aim of our EPW campaign is to engage residents in a variety of ways to encourage their personal emergency preparedness.
We have a 5100W King Generator provided by Castle Building Supplies in Blockhouse and Chester to give away to a lucky resident after the campaign.

How to get your name in the draw:
- Create a household, pet, or vehicle emergency kit or to-go bag. If you need help to determine what goes in the kit, visit our website for ideas:
- Make your Household Plan and share it with all members of your household. For ideas of what goes in your plan or to print/access
