Come to the Topanga Emergency Fair on Sunday, May 5th!
Most Topangans were left in the dark during the Woolsey Fire, last November. This fire was a wake-up call for all Topangans to learn alternative ways to prepare for disasters. Come to the 2019 Topanga Emergency Fair to learn how to plug in when the power is down.
Come hear about the factors influencing the Woolsey Fire and why Topanga was evacuated. Experts will give presentations and show videos throughout the day on the Woolsey Fire, general fire behavior, fire hardening, emergency preparedness, Helistop 69Bravo, and will lead a discussion on alternative power and communication.
