The International ShakeOut Day is October 17. It’s a day when millions of people all over the world participate in earthquake drills at school, work, and home.
The drill is at 10:17 a.m. local time on 10/17 to practice earthquake safety and review earthquake preparedness. Remember to Drop, Cover, and Hold On for the best protection during an earthquake.
