Importance of Survival Kits

Through our survival kit preparations, I have learned how important it is to have a survival kit of some sort in my car, especially living here in South Dakota. Survival kits can mean the difference between surviving and not making it in a difficult situation. Every year you hear about people who die in blizzards or get stranded, and they may have been able to survive if they had a winter survival kit in their car. I feel that people need to be informed about what they need to survive in a blizzard and how to use the contents of the kit. Overall, it is really important to have the necessary items for survival in your car in case you are ever caught in a blizzard. This class really reinforced the idea and importance of survival kits, and it is great being able to donate a survival kit to somebody in need.
