The Atlantic hurricane season officially begins today! Throughout May, we shared 31 days of hurricane readiness tips to empower families, neighborhoods, and businesses. However, preparedness is a year-round commitment!

We have another valuable preparedness opportunity. As we head into the 2026 season, we’re inviting local employers, industries, and community partners to join us for our 2026 Georgetown County Hurricane Season Business & Industry Prep Day on Wednesday, June 24, 2026, 10:00 AM – 12:00 PM at the Georgetown County Emergency Operations Center.

This event aims to help organizations strengthen their hurricane plans, learn about key state, local, and nonprofit resources, connect with other business partners, and hear insights from partners like NWS Wilmington, SC Commerce, Black River United Way / Winyah Bay COAD, Georgetown County Economic Development, and Georgetown County Emergency Services. RSVP by June 19 at 5:00 PM - link to RSVP is in the comments.

As hurricane season begins, stay prepared, stay informed, and stay connected.
