LAKEPORT, Calif. – Wildfire? Flood? Injury? What do you do when an emergency occurs and you are an animal owner?
What do you do if you’re out hiking or riding on a remote trail and you get lost or injured?
Emergency preparedness, disaster planning, animal welfare, and biosecurity and quarantining will be topics presented at a public safety expo hosted by the Lake County Horse Council on Sunday, March 29.
The expo will be held from noon to 4 p.m. at Rancho de la Fuente, 2290 Soda Bay Road in Lakeport.
This is a free community event focused on horse and animal owners but will benefit anyone who wants to be prepared in the event of an emergency.
Presenters include Lake Evacuation and Animal Protection, Cal Fire, Lake County Search and Rescue, Lake County Office of Emergency Services and UC Davis College of Agriculture and Environmental Sciences.
A Lake County Horse Council members’ meeting will follow this event. Community members can join or renew their memberships.
Community members are invited to bring ideas and a potluck snack item to share.
