Drop, Cover, and Hold On! TODAY is the Great California ShakeOut!



Are you prepared for the next big earthquake?  Today, October 17, 2013 at 10:17 am, millions of people will join in the annual Great California ShakeOut, bringing awareness to a very real threat to California.  Preparedness and knowledge are the keys to surviving during and after a significant earthquake.  The Los Angeles Fire Department offers an excellent preparedness booklet with information about steps you can take before and after an earthquake to help keep you safe, family plans for earthquakes, disaster and emergency supplies, and much more.  The LAFD booklet is available through either of the embedded links above.


Remember, if an earthquake strikes us today - Drop!  Cover!  And, Hold On!
