Learn To Use The Forum

The UtahPreppers site is our attempt to help make our personal experiences in preparedness a little easier for people to learn from.  Some people like going beyond this simple site to intertact more often, and a popular tool for this is a forum.  Now instead of going out and hosting our own form, we felt it better to work with others in this matter.  Because of the nature of our state, we have been giving our support to two separate forums out there, <a href="http://ldspreppers.com">ldspreppers.com</a> and the <a href="http://americanpreppersnetwork.net/">APN forum</a>.  Obviously the LDS Preppers forum encourages a community with a religious focus, for our LDS readers. But also we collaborate with the rest of the American Preppers Network, and have a channel on their for <a href="http://americanpreppersnetwork.net/viewforum.php?f=80">Utah specific discussions</a>.
