If you missed the Date, it’s not too Late!

If you missed this year’s ShakeOut, you can still practice on your own, with family, and co-workers or at school–pretend practice anywhere, by looking around and imagining what would happen in an earthquake: wherever you are at (the store, the doctor’s office, on the street . . .), and how you could best respond. Even taking the time to think about it will help you have something to draw on in an emergency. Some valuable info I received and am passing on:
