More notes on 72 hour kits

1. Store water. Many times after a disaster the safety of the water supply is in doubt. Having water on hand can be critically important. 2. Don't forget food in the freezer. Because the electricity was out and freezers defrosted, many families had more food (for the short term) than they could use. Neighbors got together to barbecue steaks that thawed. Many teenagers said they never ate better than during the disaster. 3. Store batteries for flashlights and radios. It seemed like everyone in the country knew more about what was happening with the disasters than the people involved in them did. A television or radio that ran on batteries was often the only source of news. Flashlights allowed those who had them to read or play games after the sun went down. 4. Have a family plan in case of emergency. Discuss where to meet and what to do in case you are not at home when disaster strikes. 5. Photos and journals can't be replaced. Make sure they are in a place where they can be grabbed quickly. Even better, make duplicate prints of your favorite family photos and send them to relatives out of state. 6. Additional supplies. Other items good to have in an emergency could include regularly required medicine (such as insulin); a change of clothes (work clothes would be best); a camp stove and fuel; first aid kit; games; bedding or a sleeping bag. 7. Cash and gas may come in handy. With power out, banks were closed, automatic tellers didn't work, and service stations could not pump fuel. Usually it only takes a couple of days for generators to be brought in to get these services functioning again, but in the meantime, those with money and gasoline have purchasing power and mobility. (Janet Thomas, "In Case of Disaster," New Era, Oct. 1990, 24)

Don't forget to include:

information - passports - certified copies of birth certificates - social security numbers - health insurance policy numbers and contact information - life insurance policy numbers and contact information - living will - credit cards AND traveler's checks/cash. (Yes, credit cards -remember during the gas riots caused by Hurricane Katrina and Rita that many gas stations stopped taking cash for security reasons. Traveler's checks work like cash and can be replaced if lost or stolen.) Go back to the << LDS Activity Ideas Main Menu >> to find hundreds more activities!

#1 Thank you so much for the
Thank you so much for the list, this is a great site. We're trying to get our 72 hr kits put together for our little family. I have a question though, I know you're supposed to keep a 72 hr kit at home and in the car. So does that mean that you have to make 2 for each person, one for each place? Or in our case 3, one for home one for each car? Is it the same things in each kit? Thanks, Julie Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on Fri,

#2 Julie, I had a professor make

Julie, I had a professor make a very valid point a number of years ago regarding preparedness kits. "The likeliness of being at home when a quake or other type of disaster occuring is about 30%. A kit sitting at home will be of no use if you are out (at school, running errands, etc.)" The university was built on the Hayward fault which connects directly to the San Andreas fault in Calif. Having lived in California most of my life, I have been through 3 earthquakes. I was at home for one, the 1989 Loma Peralta which struck San Francisco area. My advise is to have a kit for home and car. Submitted by Charla (not verified) on Thu, 05/12/2011 12:44pm. reply
