    • If they have mask or gloves ask them to bring their own, if they do not have any, protective wear will be provided to them.
    • Pets are welcome (must have a kennel), 1 pet per family

    This weather system could cause localized flash flooding.  If you come across a flooded road, ditch, or creek, turn around, don’t drown!  A majority of deaths in flash flood situations happen when people get trapped in vehicles.
