The 10th annual Hurricane Preparedness Expo and Home Show will be held at the Indian River Mall on Saturday, June 8, from 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. Residents can meet with representatives from over 40 vendors to receive valuable tips on how to prepare their homes for a potential disaster. Products including shutters, generators, roofing and new technology in hurricane preparation will be demonstrated. The American Red Cross will sponsor a children’s activity zone and will be taking donations.
Presented again by the Indian River Mall and 93.7 The Breeze radio station, last year’s event attracted more than 2,000 people and gained valuable advice for preparing their home, family and pets for a potential disaster.

Since 50% of the VB population has already left by then and there is not time for response by the snowbirds who are still here, would it not make more sense to hold this Expo in March or April?
