Need volunteers for YMYW activity

The Teacher's Quorum is in charge of the Joint activity next Tuesday, Oct. 19, and they want to do an emergency preparedness drill.

They want volunteer families to do the following:

Groups of three or four youth and their leader will come to your house shortly after 7 pm on Oct. 19. They will present you with an imaginary scenario (Shearon-Harris Nuclear disaster, hurricane, ice storm, etc.) and a list of all the things you might need, or a list of tasks you need to accomplish. You will get scored on how many of the items you have, or how many of the tasks you can accomplish.

Possible tasks: Light a lantern. Find all your flashlights. Flush a toilet using stored water. Heat water without using electricity. Find a tarp. Hide in a safe place in case of a tornado. (Or anything else we can come up with.)

You may also be asked to report on your experience on a future date at YMYW or at a Relief Society event, or just write it up so others may learn from it.

Anyone want to volunteer your family? We definitely need 4 families, but we may get a 5th family on standby. Please email me.
