How long would it take you to climb five flights of stairs while carrying a 42-pound pack, then hoist a 42-pound hose up the side of a five-story tower, race down the stairs making sure to hit every step, pick up a 9-pound mallet to hammer a 160-pound weight a distance of five feet, run through a side-to-side obstacle course, pull a fire hose 75 feet, run through a saloon door while turning on the hose and dousing a target, turn off the hose and then drag a 175-pound dummy 106 feet?

All while wearing 40 pounds of firefighting gear and a 19-pound air tank on your back?

How about 2 minutes, 22 seconds? Read the full article.

September is National Preparedness Month

Posted on: 09/09/2011

Every year, Paul Davis Restoration of Central Nebraska participates in National Preparedness Month in September to spread the word to individuals and families about the importance for being ready for disasters.

The program is sponsored by The Department of Homeland Security's Federal Emergency Management Agency’s (FEMA) Ready Campaign. Visit www.Ready.gov for information.

The key is to be informed and have a plan that you and your family discuss and practice. It is equally important to have an Emergency Ready Kit stocked and ready in case a disaster strikes. Below is a quick list of the items that every Emergency Ready Kit should contain.

Water – one gallon per person per day for at least three days
Food – at least a three-day supply of non-perishable food
First aid kit – to include bandages; sterile gloves; antibiotic ointment; iodine/alcohol pads; medical tape; pain reliever; emergency blanket; thermometer; prescription medications, and other prescribed medical supplies.
Clothing – A change of clothing and a sleeping bag for each person
Battery-powered or hand crank radio, a NOAA Weather Radio, extra batteries
Cell Phone and charger
Flashlight and extra batteries
Filter masks – to cover mouth and nose
Heavy weight garbage bags, plastic sheeting and duct tape – to protect against debris and toxins
Waterproof, portable containers – for critical documents such as IDs, insurance policies, bank account records, computer backup files, emergency and law enforcement information, and other priority documents. Store a second set of records at an off-site location.
