VGRC Annual Community Hurricane Preparation Meeting Held June 2nd

Each year, the Community Association hosts a hurricane preparation meeting for members of the community. This season’s gathering was organized by our Hurricane Response Team chief Mary Rau-Foster. The 2025 kick-off meeting was again well attended. Questions from the audience were on-the-mark and much appreciated by the speakers. A wealth of new information was presented by our Venice Fire Chief Frank Giddens, Assistant Town Manager James Clinch and Emergency Manager Chief for Sarasota County, Susan Tapfumaneyei. Lessons learned from the 2024 season were highlighted by the speakers.

As a reminder, here is a map of the 2024 hurricanes. See details here.
