The three items below are being cross posted from the Thayer, MO Topix site in case you want to follow that one also..

Where can I find the details on a preparedness event that is supposed to be held in Thayer on Oct 20 nad 21st.

location
hours
what is being presented such as speakers and vendors.

Thanks.

the green fair at city park. On the dates mentioned. Variety of booths and speakers. Solar generator systems, storing food, etc. perhaps something can be set up to allow barter meets in the future after yhe dollar fails. Let me know if there is any interest in this.

I am very interested in this, as I think it will be here before people realize and so many are not ready

i think that perhaps we need to get those interested to meet. As when the SHTF, things will be very confusing.

lets put the word out. Those that are interested in meeting to see ajbout forming some kind od cooperative for what is coming, meet at the Thayer McDonalds on Oct 20th at 2 PM in the dining area. If those that are interested. Please spread the word.
PS, Onama does not intend to leave the White House.

Until one is prepared spiritually, one cannot function properly in this life and is not prepared for the next. What good is it for a person to gain the world but lose everything in eternity. True peace never comes from material things.

I agree, but you can see that on a site like Topix there's always a bunch of hardasses who are going to hate you for that. If it makes you feel better I think most of us see you weren't saying anything against being prepared for disasters in this life. Really it seems like that's mostly what this life is about. Even if people don't stock up for disasters we keep working and trying to save a little money and stuff just to be able to survive disasters like having an America hating Kenyan in the WH. Everybody's suffering from that disaster.

Some good suggestions here. I'd also recommend a good supply of guns and ammo. What's coming this side of Heaven will make that necessary.

What kind of containers do you store your water in? Where do you get them? What is a good site to check out for getting started? A beginners list or something.

[guest]

google arkansas prepper groups for a start.

there are a number of listings, you just have to sort through them to find things that interest you.

also google disaster preparedness. that will give you links to a lot of basic information.

In my case I store non drinking water in 55 gallon plastic barrels, the key is to put some clorox or other brand of bleach, about a cup to 55 gallons to prevent mold from growing.

I drain mine every couple of years and refill them with fresh water. this would be used for bathing and dishes in an emergency.

I keep a supply of bottled water for drinking and cook in an emergency and use some of it as I go along to keep the supply rotated and fresh.

my source for barrels is no longer available.

Can't help wondering about all the hostility regarding being prepared spiritually and emotionally as well as with food, water, medical supplies and weapons. If you've ever been in battle conditions you know you need both, and I agree that what's coming will be battle conditions. It's good to see some understand. I noticed the Highland Drive Walmart there is putting some storage foods on the shelf, not sure yet if they compete with what's on line.

The aliens are already here, They are hear by the millions. They have been invading America for many years. They come from Mexico.

NatGeo is showing DoomsDay Preppers again, new episodes. Some of those people have good ideas and some of them seem to be "out there" to me. You have to decide for yourself as to how far you need to go with being prepared. We all need to have some sort of disaster plan though. You never know when and what sort of emergency will strike.
I love watching that show though.

The Russians are building tremendous new nuclear/biological and chemical weapons systems--all with the assistance of US technology transfers. They are deploying on average, 3 new Topol-M 6th generation ballistic missiles per month. We built our last MX over 10 years ago, and are disarming unilaterally. Further, the Russians are building huge underground nuclear bunkers and weapons production facilities in the Ural Mountains, clearly intended to function during a nuclear war. The US intelligence community (under both Republican and Democratic administrations) knows this and are actively covering for the Russians, so the American people won't become alarmed.
Both Republican and Democratic administrations have been supplying the Chinese with high technology weapons systems for years, knowing that they, in turn, are supplying other enemies (Iran, Iraq, Pakistan, North Korea) as well. Both Russia and China continue to protest against any US anti-ballistic missile system, even though such systems are purely defensive. It doesn't take a genius to understand that ABM systems only threaten someone who intends to launch ballistic missiles someday.
President Clinton directed our military to absorb a nuclear first strike rather than launch on warning (our only true deterrent to a first strike) and to prepare to retaliate afterward. That first strike will take down all command and control, all bombers (since none are on alert), most missiles, and all satellite and submarine communications.
According to the House Armed Services Committee, the following reductions have taken place during the Clinton Administration: Strategic and General Purpose Forces from 1990 to 1997: B-52 Bombers have gone from 220 to 56. B-1 Bombers from 90 to 60; Strategic Defense Interceptor Aircraft from 36 to 0; and Army Divisions (1990 to 1997) have gone from 18 Active down to 10. Reserve divisions have gone from 10 to 8. Army Brigades (1990 to 1997) have declined from 8 Active to 3 and Reserve brigades have gone down from 27 to 18.
Joel Skousen's World Affairs Brief attempts to track the insider moves underlying the major stories you hear each week. The WAB is not a primary news source--but rather, the best source of news analysis. Joel's purpose and strong point is to help you see how world and national events are shaping up in accordance with the secret agendas of men and groups who control government. The World Affairs Brief puts together the probable set of intentions and motives of the power elite by inductively cataloging their specific actions over time.
What will you do about it?
What is the risk to you and your family if there is a major terrorist attack on a U.S. city with chemical or biological weapons? What will you do?
Did you know the US, by policy, will not retaliate on warning of a nuclear attack --effectively removing any deterrent? Are you prepared if the "unthinkable" happens --nuclear war?
Have you considered what you will do if an economic crisis threatens your pensions, investments and other so-called "guaranteed" income?
What about a major earthquake or other natural disaster suddenly upsetting the natural social order for months at a time? Could you get out of harm's way if massive social unrest erupts in the wake of a crisis?
What about your home? Do you have extra tanks of potable water should public water supplies be cut off or contaminated? Would you know how to collect and filter your own water if none was available for a long time?

Straight from joel skousen's website. He makes money spreading this doom nonsense and then sells bomb shelters and survivalist gear to lunatics. I guess he sees the Thayer area as a boom market.

Yes, there are prepping minded people in this area as well as some forums with local people on them. Give me an email and I'll give you some more info. I don't want to post anything here because the trolls and troublemakers will invade the sites.

You don't have to prep for the end "of the world" or loss of civilization. Just think back to the ice storm a few years back. How long were you without electricity? Were you warm? Did you have food and water? Were there things you weren't prepared for? Did you stay prepared after the electricity came back on and you went to the store or will you be part of the crowd grabbing what you can on the grocery store shelves the day before the next storm? What if you don't know when that storm might hit?

Oh god the freaks kooks and nutburgers are at it again. I would bet the farm these uneducated nuts listen religiously to glenn beck and stockpile ammo. My brother in law the gun shop owner loves obama. The nuts buy more ammo when the minions of nuts like you think like you do. Just too funny to watch easily swayed rednecks throw away what little money they have.

Thanks for proving my point. If you don't want to prepare for you and your families safety, don't. Why is it your business what I spend my money on? Like was said above, it's not about the end of the world. It's preparing in the event of a natural disaster, job loss, or any other unforeseeable disaster.

I suggest that you post on craigslist, probably in the events or community section. that way people can respond to you via the craigslist response so that neither of you post your contact information on a site like this.

P.s. I'm already a small time prepper, for natural disasters and such, not the end of the world. I would be interested in learning more and sharing what I have found, but will not put any contact information on topix
