Is Your Business Prepared for an Emergency?
Christy Mosier, Public Information Officer for the Coshocton County Health Department, was the guest speaker at the weekly meeting of the Coshocton Rotary Club.
Mosier addressed the club on business preparedness for a natural disaster or emergency.
"Every business should have a plan," said Mosier.
She also outlined the biggest threats to smaller communities such as Coshocton including: flooding, severe weather, tornado, and a pandemic outbreak.
She urged business owners to develop a line of communication in case of an emergency, select a shelter for evacuations, and insure employees are trained in areas such as first aid and CPR.
Mosier suggested that plans be reviewed annually and tested during the year. |

Recruiting New Members
Two clubs in Korea have set stellar examples for how to achieve the ambitious membership goal set by RI President Dong Kurn Lee this year.
The Rotary clubs of Gwangju-Ibseog in Gwangju and Iri Dong in Jeonrabug held activities outside of club meetings to reach potential -- and in some cases, younger -- members. Both clubs exceeded their membership goals for the 2007-08 Rotary year.
