Greenwood Hub - REBOOT!

Help us REBOOT Greenwood’s “Emergency Communication Hub”! We went a little quiet during COVID…
A “Hub” is a place where neighbors will naturally gather after a big event, like an earthquake, to support one another. Our Gathering Spot, and our Hub Box, is in the Greenwood Park. Inside the Hub box is gear to help us organize and get the word out about how to stay safe after a disaster. It’s important stuff. COVID derailed much of the great work we were doing to help folks prepare for a disaster. Let’s get back at it with some fresh energy and ideas!

We’re looking for neighbors to learn how the Hub will support Greenwood neighbors after a major event. Also, to get involved in activities this summer.

Greenwood Hub REBOOT!
Tuesday, May 28
7pm to 8:30pm
Greenwood Senior Center (825 N 85th Street)

If you would like to get involved with Emergency Preparedness, the Hub, or have questions, please reach out!
See you May 28th!
Thank you,
