The Great Shakedown Earthquake Drill (https://www.shakeout.org/index.html):  The International ShakeOut Day, every third Thursday of October, is a day of individual and community events featuring the largest earthquake drill ever, organized to inspire others to get ready for big earthquakes, and to prevent disasters from becoming catastrophes. What we do to prepare now, before the next big earthquake, will determine how well we can survive and recover. ShakeOut will occur in houses, workplaces, schools, and public spaces on October 19, 2023. During the drill, students learn how to drop, cover and hold on in the event of an earthquake.
