It's that special day of the year when we all “Drop, Cover, and Hold on”! It's the Great ShakeOut!

This is a Worldwide, National, State, County and Local Awareness and Exercise Event!!

Join millions of people worldwide who will “Drop, Cover, and Hold On.”

Participating is a great way for your family or organization to become better prepared to survive and recover more quickly from big earthquakes.

The Great ShakeOut serves as a stark reminder that preparedness is not an option, but a necessity. 

  • Practice Saves Lives: The main objective of the Great ShakeOut is to practice what to do when an earthquake hits. Regular drills help individuals and communities develop muscle memory for responding effectively.

  • Raise Awareness: This event raises awareness about earthquake risks and the importance of being prepared. It encourages individuals, schools, businesses, and organizations to take action.

  • Community Resilience: A well-prepared community can better withstand the impact of an earthquake. The Great ShakeOut fosters a sense of collective responsibility to ensure that neighborhoods are ready to respond and recover.
