All new Excursion kit for hiking, camping, auto, and outdoor winter sports. This is all packed inside the Water Bottle to keep it secure and in place until you have need to use it.

Each family should have a 72-hour kit in case of emergencies. Store the kits in an easy to locate place so that you can grab them quickly from the trunk of your car, your garage or in a closet by the door. Here is some additional information about 72 hours kits:

The objective of the Family 72-Hour Emergency Preparedness Kit is to have, previously assembled and placed in one location, all of those essential items you and your family will need during a 72-hour time period following an emergency. When an emergency occurs you will probably not have the luxury of going around the house gathering up needed items, especially if you have to evacuate your home on short notice.

Take time now to gather whatever your family needs to survive for three days(72 Hours) based upon the assumption that those items are the only possessions you will have. Store these kits in a closet near the front door or some other easily accessible place where they can be quickly and easily grabbed on the way out the door.

Pack all items in plastic Zip-loc type bags to keep them dry and air tight. This will prevent a liquid item from spilling and ruining other items in your kit and keep rain and other forms of moisture away from the items stored.
