We are excited to announce that the Larimer County Office of Emergency Management has selected our community to participate in an evacuation drill coming up next spring.

​

On Saturday, May 30th, 2026, our neighborhood will conduct a Neighborhood Evacuation Readiness Drill. The goal is simple: practice grabbing your GoBag and safely evacuating to a central Assembly Point; details on that location are coming soon.

​

The event is sponsored by the Larimer County Office of Emergency Management and will include a test LETA alert to all those who sign-up, Loveland Fire Rescue Authority (LFRA) & the Larimer County Sheriff's Office (LCSO) will be involved. There will be several community and emergency resource booths along with FOOD & Prizes.

​

Over the next four to five months, please stay tuned to our monthly newsletters, SLACK, and the weekly GMRS net, where we will focus heavily on key areas to get everyone ready for this great event. This will include:

 

• Sign-Up: How to sign-up for the event?

• Preparation: We'll share detailed checklists and tips on ensuring your GoBag is complete, up-to-date, and accessible.

• Buddy System: We will educate everyone on forming and checking in on their close-neighbor buddy system.

• Logistics: We will share the official evacuation map, the Assembly Point location, and highlight the Emergency Services and Resource Booths that will be joining us that day.

 

Our tentative plans are to kick off the exercise with our GMRS radios the morning of the event. We'll start an emergency net, everyone will check-in, and we will ask you all to reach out to your buddies. At some time during the morning LETA will send an alert to all neighbors who signed up to evacuate. We will hand off Net Control to someone in town and ask everyone to meet at the evacuation meeting point, which is to be determined and will have booths, education videos, food, prizes and more!

​

Here's how to participate:

One, put the morning of Saturday, May 30th on your calendar to join the drill.

Two, help communicate the event to your neighbors and friends.

Three, when we have the signup ready, please sign up so you get the LETA Alert that will be delivered around 10:30 AM on May 30th (and we can get a count for food). 

We are excited to become the most prepared neighborhood we can be.
