The International ShakeOut Day of Action, 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 at Franklin at 10:20 a.m. on October 20, 2016. If you are at school at that time, you will be part of the drill!
