Hurricane Season
Information
Charles “Chuck”
Tear, Emergency Management
Coordinator for The City of Miami Beach, will be the guest
speaker at the July 29th meeting of the Tuesday Morning
Breakfast Club. We have been very fortunate in not having
a major hurricane since Hurricane Andrew in August of 1992.
Although it only brushed by us, it hit South Florida with
a category five storm causing wide-spread devastation.
Living on a barrier
island presents special problems in storms, especially when
we need to evacuate, having only two major causeways between
the beach and the mainland. Mr. Tear
will help us to understand the need to have a personal hurricane
plan, especially for seniors.
There is no
charge for attending and everyone is welcome.
