Come and see what to expect if you need to use the town shelter in the event of an emergency. Learn what provisions will be available for your family and pets. The Wayland Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) and Medical Reserve Corp (MRC) will be holding a safety fair and shelter exercise at the Middle School.
