Bay of Islands Search and Rescue’s Shawn Street was in Deer Lake for their meeting on Sunday. He says a lot of the discussion centered around how to get more people involved with emergency preparedness. Street says being prepared is easy; take enough medication, food, water and clothing to last a few days. He says when heading out into the woods always make a trip plan and let someone know about it.
