Emergency Go Kit

/ General, Uncategorized / By

You and your partner are called to the Disney World to help look for an elderly man and his five-year-old grandson.  They have wondered out of the public areas and are behind the scenes possible in the Animal Kingdom section of the park.  The child is a type one diabetic and is insulin dependent.  The elderly male possible has the early onset of dementia.  The elderly man’s name is Curtis and the young boy is named Harold.  Night is beginning to fall on the happiest place on earth and the parents to the boy are getting worried.  Disney does not have many people to spare to help look for the lost couple. 

 

Create a “go bag” to aid in the search and make sure you have plenty of the necessary supplies to get you through a long night.  The kit needs to be portable and able to carry with you.
