Your Meeting Place

Why do you need a meeting place?

 

  • Everyone goes to the same place, so you know who is out and not out you can tell firefighters if anyone is not accounted for.

Your meeting place should be:

  • In front of your home or where firefighters can see you
  • A safe distance from your home.
  • Something very specific that everyone can remember and find easily. For example, a tree, a telephone pole, or mailbox.
