It’s better to be safe than sorry and the Pennyrile Citizens Corps Council is urging area residents to make a New Years resolution to be prepared for disasters and emergencies in 2012.

Chairman Dan Nicholson says the PRCCC is participating in a national campaign called Resolve to Be Ready and Prepared for Disasters and Emergencies in 2012.

According to Nicholson, you never know when life can take an unexpected turn and he says it’s always smart to be prepared for any situation.

If you would like more information about disaster preparedness, the Pennyrile Citizens Corps Council is offering free classes. For more information check out the organization’s Facebook page or contact Dan Nicholson, Frank Brown or Jim Creighton at PADD Office, 270-886-9484.
