LDN -- Top Stories

Alana Sorrentino of the Logan County Emergency Management Agency explains to Steve Schumacher what items everyone should have packed in the emergency preparedness kit for their home. Schumacher was attending the annual Logan County Emergency Management Agency Family Preparedness Day in Scully Park on Saturday. The event brought in visitors from around the community who were able to see the special equipment used by the various emergency service agencies in the county, and people were also given information on how to be prepared at home for emergency and disaster.
