A statewide tornado drill will be conducted on March 22 at 1 p.m. One of the goals of the tornado drill, other than practicing for the possibility of a tornado, is the beginning of a conversation about emergency preparedness. The hope is to get folks thinking of questions such as:<br \/>\n&#8211; Do you have a plan?<br \/>\n&#8211; Where will you go?<br \/>\n&#8211; What will you do?<br \/>\n&#8211; Do you know the alert systems in your area?<br \/>\n&#8211; How will you communicate?<\/p>\n<p>Unfortunately a lot of individuals do not think about these things until it is too late. Prepare your family, engage your community, and help build a prepared and resilient Michigan.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Gallery working on community project<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Art and Soul Gallery is working on a community art project and they need your help.<\/p>\n<p>They are in need of your bottle tops, the sturdy, twist off kind.
