Towering stacks of blue buckets have arrived at the Jefferson County Emergency Operations Center (EOC), and CERT volunteers have been helping EOC Director Kristy Anderson to fill them up with hurricane season supplies and information for residents, provided by various vendors.
To get one of the 100 buckets, just head over on Saturday, May 9, to the 2026 Jefferson County Drive Through Preparedness Event happening at the EOC office, located at 169 Industrial Park (in front of the Sheriff's Office). Buckets will be available beginning at 10 a.m. until supplies run out.
When you drive through, you'll be given a big blue bucket full of helpful items:
• soap
• water
• MREs
• tissues
• matches
• batteries
• first aid kit
• and more!
