Guam Homeland Security to host annual fair at Micronesia Mall

The National Preparedness Month Grand Finale Fair will take place on Saturday, Sept. 30 from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the Micronesia Mall center court.

The event will feature tables and booths from local and federal agencies that play a role in emergency management.

“There will be live demonstrations as well from partners in local law enforcement and the military,” said Jenna Blas, Guam Homeland Security public information officer.

This event concludes the festivities of National Preparedness Month.

During September, GHS hosted online social media contests and provided multiple outreach tables at Agana Shopping Center, Kmart, GPO, the Dededo Community Center, Andersen Air Force Base, as well as different schools and business.

According to Blas, National Preparedness Month is a nationwide initiative.

“It is always best to prepare before a disaster strikes,” Blas said. By preparing individually or as a family, you’re helping to create a more resilient community as a whole.”
