…for an earthquake, tsunami, landslide of the bluff, or an oil spill from the trains? These are all possibilities here at Shilshole and we could be cut off from city services and have to rely on our own resources and our Shilshole community. The Shilshole Liveaboard Assoc (SLA) is actively involved with the City of Seattle neighborhood HUBs for emergency preparedness and communication. You can read more at Shilshole Prepares. If you are interested in getting involved with the HUBs or emergency communication, please check the bulletin board at the gate for contact info.
KING 5 is also helping you and your family get ready with all day coverage on Monday, July 24. See their plan here.
Here are a couple YouTube videos showing the boats and the fireworks at Poulsbo this past week..
