LCP is for those who want to meet like minded persons that are interested in prepping and discussing/sharing related topics. Prepping is the act of a group or individual preparing themselves and their loved ones for any potential threat to survival, be it natural (storms, power outage) or man-made (financial). How will you provide food, water, shelter to your loved ones if it should all hit the fan tomorrow? If you want to learn how, join this group!

This is a group for anyone interested in learning more about the many different areas of preparedness: 72 hour kits, water storage/purification, food storage, food preservation (dehydrating, canning, smoking), solar cooking, gardening/harvesting and much more.

We'll meet once a month to receive instruction and learn from one another. Everyone is welcome!
