Each year, F I S H , the city of Sanibel, Lee County Emergency Management and others work together to review plans and make changes for the upcoming hurricane season F I S H then compiles a free Hurricane Preparedness Resource Packet that provides detailed information on where to go, what to do and how to prepare in the event of an approaching storm The packet was one of the first programs offered by F I S H when it began

“The packet provides critical information and helpful steps to stay safe before, during and after a storm,” Senior Services Director Erika Broyles, who oversees the program and coordinates the team's efforts to ensure all of the provided information is correct, said

F I S H and volunteers verify evacuation routes, flood zones, hotels with generators, shelters, pet accommodations and more to update the packet While the official start of season is June 1, the packet is available now. They can be picked up on Mondays at F I S H Walk-In
