Daylight Saving Time

In 2005, October 30th is the day to change your clocks (in the United States). Because this happens twice a year, it is an excellent time to remind your community to update their preparedness supplies in several key ways:

• Check the charge in fire extinguishers
• Check the batteries in smoke detectors
• If supplies include water in regular plastic bottles, cycle that water out: use it and replace it
• Food that wasn’t cycled six months ago should be eaten and replaced
