SUMMARY:Disaster Preparedness Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Due to the number of recent disaster in Bastrop County and surrounding areas\, we believe that people are more interested in emergency planning than ever before. According to the Federal Emergency Management Agency\, almost 40% of small businesses never reopen following a disaster.\n\n\n\nFor this reason\, the Bastrop Chamber of Commerce along with the Bastrop EDC\, Texas State Small Business Development Center (SBDC)\, and the Elgin and Smithville Chambers are hosting a Disaster Preparedness Workshop. Our target area for this workshop are Bastrop\, Caldwell\, Lee\, Fayette and northern Gonzales Counties\, but everyone is invited to attend so that they can prepare their business if a future disaster hits.\n\n\n\nThis half day event we give business owners a hands-on opportunity to walk away with at least a draft of an emergency plan for their business. Included in the day will be a panel discussion with stories from business owner about lessons learned during recent fires and floods along with a keynote speaker\, Former Bastrop County Judge Ronnie McDonald.\n\n\n\nSpace is limited\, so register early.\n\n\n\nSchedule\n\n7:30am to 8:00am   Continental Breakfast\n\n8:00am to 8:15am   Keynote Kickoff\, motivational guest speaker & Former Co.
