72 Hour Kit Assignment for May

For the month of May we are focusing on our food and cooking supplies for our 72 hour kits. Here is a suggested list of the things you may want to included:

Food

2 quarts of water per day
hot coca mix/cider
fruit/lemonade mix
granola bars
hard candy or gum
soup mix/canned soup
beef jerky
dried fruit
MRE

Cooking Supplies

camp cup
matches
camping stove
utensils

On June 16th, there will be an opportunity to pack together a basic food collection for your 72 hour kit. The cost will be 10 dollars and all items can fit into a gallon ziploc. Watch the Relief Society rolls for a sign up. Remember, every member in your household needs their own food supply, but cooking supplies can be easily shared. We also recommend that you rotate through these food items on a 6 month basis. An easy way to remember this is to go through your food items every General Conference weekend. Beef jerky doesn't last forever!!
