Hurricane season starts tomorrow and there is disturbed weather that could form in the southwest gulf of Mexico over the next 5 days.
Is your business ready to act and be prepared?
Is your family prepared? You have to take action to be ready. You don't want to wait and then react with negative consequences!

2019 proves to be a challenging year for GMSC! We have renewed our contract with Galveston County, we look forward to doing our industry classes throughout the year, and we are in a position to launch FLOAT!
FLOAT is our Flood Operations Assist Team that we are putting together at the original request of the Houston Fire Department! We are starting to accept donations to this 501(c)(3) charitable organization in hopes of raising the $500,000. needed to get started.
We will be reaching out to those in our communities who have PWC's and would like to join and train with FLOAT soon.
We hope to have the group in place to respond in time for this year's storm season! Keep checking back for updates!
