It's Almost Time for the Great Washington ShakeOut!

In an earthquake, you may only have seconds to protect yourself before strong shaking knocks you down, or something falls on you. Practice quake-safe actions at 10:18 a.m. on October 18. Why? Because when the adrenaline kicks in, you may not act safely if you haven’t practiced the Drop, Cover, Hold On drill before that moment. Don’t wait until the shaking – register at www.ShakeOut.org/washington/register.


Invite everyone who matters to you to register and ShakeOut on October 18 at 10:18 a.m. Everyone is welcome to participate - individuals, families, businesses, schools, government agencies and organizations!
