Winter Weather Shelter Open
January 29, 2014
In coordination with Escambia County Emergency Management, the American Red Cross opened a winter weather shelter Tuesday night to provide safe, warm lodging for area residents affected by power outages and frigid temperatures.
The shelter opened at East Brent Baptist Church at 4801 North Davis in Pensacola.
Disaster Program Specialist Doug Watson asks that those needing shelter bring their personal items and any special dietary products. For families with children, it’s always a good idea to bring a special blanket or stuffed animal to help them feel more at home. In addition, you may want to prepare a go-bag and include the following:
- Medications
- Glasses
- Important personal paperwork
- Cell phone and charger
- Warm clothing
- Sanitation/ personal care products
- Flashlight and batteries
