AN expo in Moorabool’s north will return this month, connecting locals to emergency services and providing tips on storm preparation.<\/p>\n

The Korweinguboora Emergency Group’s Community Emergency Preparedness Expo is back on for its second iteration on Sunday 16 June.<\/p>\n

It will feature some of the latest equipment available to prepare properties for natural disasters, a mini field day showcasing local businesses and services, and more.<\/p>\n

A spokesperson for the Korweinguboora Emergency Group said the family friendly event was worth anyone in the region attending, to ensure they’re prepared.<\/p>\n

“Attendees can expect to meet local emergency services and organisations and learn more about how they support the community during and after a storm event, as well as see some of the equipment and vehicles they use in an emergency,” the spokesperson said.<\/p>\n

“Attendees can also meet local businesses and see what they can buy to help prepare their homes and properties for a storm event.<\/p>\n

“Food and coffee vans will be there on the day too.”<\/p>\n

Entry to the event is free, and a gate prize will be drawn on the day, in the form of a storm\/flood emergency kit valued at $250.<\/p>\n

The Community Emergency Preparedness Expo will be held from 10am to 2pm on Sunday 16 June, at the Korweinguboora Recreation Reserve at 1399 Ballan-Daylesford Road, Spargo Creek.<\/p>\n
