I continue to hear and see messages to encourage us to "Be Ready" for ememrgencies. Food storage and 72-hour kits are on many minds. With it being spring, and many people "spring cleaning" I thought I would give a good reference for a 72-hour kit (or emergency supply list). Many people like to change out supplies and check them at the time of LDS conference. It occurs the first week of April and October of each year. It is a good reminder to check your supplies and make sure they are fresh and fit (notice the fit... It is good to keep a change of clothes for each person. If you have little ones this is really important to remember!).
Sometimes it can be overwhelming to look at the list. Round up what you have around your house and then each week buy 1 thing to help build your supply (whether it be food storage or for your emergency supply kit). Keep in mind, you need to be able to access and take your kit with you in case an emergency happens near your home and you only have seconds to evacuate.
