ShakeOut Past, Present, and Future...

The ShakeOut began in Southern California in 2008 as a drill designed to educate the public about how to protect themselves during a large earthquake, and how to get prepared. Great Shakeout Earthquake Drills are now held in more than 20 Official ShakeOut Regions, along with an option for people in any other state or country to also register and be counted in the global total. New ShakeOut Regions are established each year. Please contact us if you are interested in coordinating a ShakeOut Region for your state, province, or country.

More coming soon!
