The City of Pocomoke will host "Are You Prepared?," a community workshop designed to help residents prepare for power outages, severe weather, and other unexpected emergencies.
The workshop will take place Tuesday, November 17, 2026 at 6:00p.m. in the Maryland Room at the Pocomoke City Community Center.
Representatives from Baxter Insurance, Choptank Electric Cooperative, and Sharp energy will provide practical information to help residents prepare for power outages, severe weather, and other emergency situations.
Topics will include steps residents can take before an emergency, recommended household supplies, utility and homes safety considerations, and reliable sources of information and assistance. Attendees will also have an opportunity to hear directly from participating organizations and ask questions.
Emergencies can occur with little warning, but advance preparation can help households respond more safely and confidently. The workshop is intended to give residents useful, locally relevant information that they can apply throughout the year.
Community members are encouraged to attend and learn how to create a preparedness plan that meets the needs of their household.
