Family "Power Out" Night

October 30, 2022
​
Let's make it fun to be prepared!
In our City, we have planned and unplanned power outages.  Is your family prepared  if your power is out for a few hours or a few days?  

Use this this evening to create a fun and educational Halloween “spooky” tradition to help your family be prepared in case there is a power outage in the future.

Family "Power Out" Night
 
This is a PVE Neighborhood Watch original event designed to make planning for an emergency a fun and educational experience for your whole family.  

Set aside 1 - 2 hours (or even a full evening) to live without power.  Use the checklist below for preparation and the evening events.  Engage the whole family so that it is a learning and connecting experience.  

Have fun and take pictures.  Let us know how your evening went.  
​
How to Prepare for Family "Power Out" Night
 

Have a brainstorming session and create a shopping list with your family a few days before the event.  
  • What would you need if you had no power for:
    • Lights?
    • Computers?
    • Cooking?
    • Entertainment?
  • ​What will you do on "Lights Out" night?  
    • ​Have a barbecue? Candlelit dinner?
    • ​Share scary stories around your fire pit?
    • See with candles or battery lanterns?
    • Play charades, games or do some star-gazing?
    • Dress up as superheroes?
  • Print and post a "We're participating in "Power Out" Night" sign in your front yard or window (there are 3 sign options).
