FAIC is collecting stories of the preparedness activities conducted this month in recognition of MayDay, the annual event encouraging libraries, museums, archives, historical societies, and preservation organizations to take at least one simple step to prepare for emergencies. Although MayDay is technically May 1st, we welcome stories of any activities happening during the month of May - so it's not too late to organize your activity!
No action is too small. Consider reviewing your emergency plan or reading up on how to properly use a fire extinguisher. If you are looking for additional ideas, check out FAIC's MayDay website at <URL: http://www.conservation-us.org/emergencies/mayday> or review posts with the hashtag #MayDayPrep on Facebook and Twitter. You can share your story via an easy online portal: <URL: https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/MayDayPrep2017>. Everyone who posts will be entered to win one of six gift certificates from Gaylord Archival - one $250 Grand Prize gift certificate, two $100 gift certificates, and three $50 gift certificates. Gaylord offers an array of emergency supplies, from freezer paper, to goggles, to water detectors. Check out their offerings at <URL: http://www.gaylord.com/c/Supplies-and-Equipment>. This month, do just one thing for emergency preparedness!
