Katy Area Safety Fest
Mark your calendars for Saturday, April 23, and plan to attend the Katy Area Safety Fest at Katy Mills Mall, 5000 Katy Mills Circle, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.
A free, family-friendly festival featuring personnel, equipment, and activities from emergency response agencies serving the Greater Katy community, the Katy Area Safety Fest strives to provide education and resources to encourage safety preparedness.
“Being familiar with what to do and who to call during an emergency is something families across our community should know,” said Johnny Mitchell, President of the Board of Directors. “The goal of this event is to introduce residents of the Greater Katy area with the first responders who serve the local community as well as provide helpful information on how to prevent, prepare, and connect during a crisis.”
