UTAH SHAKE OUT!!!

Yesterday at 10:15 a.m. was the great Utah Shake Out. So like thousands of other Utahans, we practiced earthquake preparedness. We happened to go through the preparedness last week as well so the kids got a double whammy. It is so important in my opinion to get past the point of being scared that this and many other things can happen and be pro-active in getting prepared.
We went through the drill on all three levels of the home so that the kids could think through how they would get out in that scenario. Of course if they were unable to get up the stairs, crouching beside the arm of the couch or under the extremely heavy teacher desk closest to the cement wall would be the better option. We have a meeting place out side that is clear of trees, power poles etc. and very accessible no matter what door they went out. Do you have a plan for your family in the event of an earthquake?
