On behalf of the Southeast Regional Local Emergency Planning Committee, thank you for participating in our 14^th annual 2023 Hurricane Workshop and Safety Fair. It was a valuable event for our community, and we appreciate your willingness to offer your information, services, and time during the event. We received many positive comments from the staff and community members about the meaningful experience this event was for everyone who attended. Our success was in no small part due to experts such as you who could answer questions, disseminate information, and administer informative screenings.

Your time and dedication and continued support you gave to this event is what makes this successful through such programs as this annual Hurricane Workshop & Safety Fair to perform our mission:

To improve hazardous materials preparedness within our community through cooperative public-private partnerships.
