The Survival Center Completes Emergency Preparedness Demonstration for Washington State DOT

OLYMPIA, Wa. May 16, 2007 – The Survival Center’s Emergency Preparedness Training
Division completed a one day demonstration at the Tumwater, Washington Department of Transportation facility.

Demonstrations included the new solar powered flashlights, radios and hand crank cell phone chargers. The New Life Saver NOAA Weather Alert System for home and office was well received. The famous Mountain House Freeze Dried food with up to 30 year shelf life was an instant hit.

The Survival Center’s newly designed variety of 3 day plus emergency kits helped many to see how well prepared they were. Most everyone liked to squeeze the New Soft Squeeze Hand Operated LED flashlight, one of the kit items.

“It is encouraging to see that the state of Washington is interested in its employees being prepared. In today’s ever changing world Being Prepared takes on a whole new meaning,” said “Uncle Richard” General Manager of The Survival Center.
