The Seven Day Challenge is our way of celebrating National Emergency Preparedness Month in September. Over the years we have done things a little differently each time. However the main concept has always been the same. The challenge is made up of practicing and analyzing your preparedness skills and storage for 7 days as we work through different mock emergency situations as a group.

2025 DAILY SUMMARIES
Every year we do something a little bit different. Some years we focus more on cooking, one year it was 30 days of mini prepping projects, sometimes it’s one big disaster all week, others it’s different disasters each day. Here is a list of each day’s emergencies for this year. They will be updated each day as we are still underway!
Day 1: EARTHQUAAAKE ♒︎
Day 2: WATER MAIN BREAK 💧
