Disaster Awareness Day Video

Below, you will find a link to the video of Disaster Awareness Day at the Seabrook Island Club.  The event was jointly sponsored by Town of Seabrook Island and Town of Kiawah Island.  SIPOA (Seabrook Island Property Owners Association) and the Town of Seabrook split the cost of making the video.

If you were unable to attend or stay for the whole day, there were many interesting facts about Hurricane Matthew from several perspectives, such as from the Town of Seabrook Island, Town of Kiawah, the Sheriff’s Department, NOAA and many others.

There was also information on preparing for another hurricane.  As you know, Tidelines is running a series of articles on arrangements you should make, but it is always helpful to get other perspectives and opinions about what to do.

To see the video, click here. When you go to this link, it might take some time to upload.
