Preparing the Generator for the Storm

We have been most fortunate over the past several years as Georgia has not seen an ice storm of any magnitude.  All this could and will most likely change on Sunday night.

In the event you haven't dug out the old generator during these times of great winter weather, please do so today.  It's a great sunny day and now is the time to see if it works.  You may need to clean up the spark plug, check the oil and gas, and have plenty of time to tweak the all the parts.  It's best to do it now rather than in the middle of the storm!

Be sure to have plenty of gasoline available for refilling the generator in the event you lose power.

Stay safe during the storm.

/PRNewswire/ -- Program officials have confirmed that they will announce the official launch of the free statewide prescription assistance program at a news conference today in Atlanta. Georgia Drug Card is being launched to help the uninsured residents of Georgia afford their prescription medications.

Georgians can obtain prescription cards at various hospitals, clinics, and other card distribution sites that are being set up across Georgia. The Medical Association of Georgia (MAG) is working with the program to create additional locations. The cards are accepted at more than 50,000 pharmacies across the country. Anyone interested in learning more can visit www.georgiadrugcard.com.

The program is being touted as the answer for Georgia residents that find it difficult to navigate the confusing maze of prescription programs that have appeared in recent years. Georgia Drug Card is open to anyone living or working in Georgia regardless of age or income.
