As you may have heard (or maybe not) we’re expected to be hit with a major storm Sunday January 25th into Monday January 26th. PCVAC will be in full operation ready to respond during the storm and 24/7.

Here are some of PCVAC’s tips for snowstorm preparedness:

1. Avoid unnecessary travel
2. Don’t over exert yourself while shoveling, this can lead to injuries and medical episodes
3. Stay hydrated
3. Prepare ahead of time with lots of food, water, first aid and any other necessities for yourself and others
4. Know your resources!
