Roanoke’s 2024 Prepareathon is happening this Saturday, September 21, from 10:00 AM – 2:00 PM at the Berglund Center Coliseum! Prepareathon is a free, fun, family-friendly event focused on getting you and your community prepared for local natural disasters and emergencies.
This year’s Prepareathon is bigger and better than ever before with a Touch-A-Truck outdoor event, over 30 vendors from across the commonwealth, a blood drive, voter registration, and classes from Carilion Clinic on a variety of preparedness topics. Come to the event and enter for a chance to win emergency preparedness and Cedar Fair Park prizes!
