The annual Great BC ShakeOut happens this week.
The annual "Drop, Cover, and Hold On" exercise is planned for 10:17 a.m. Thursday, Oct. 17.
The annual campaign is a gentle reminder on how we should respond to an earthquake.
Taking proactive measures such as building an emergency kit is a simple step you can take that greatly increases your safety and preparedness in the event of an earthquake or other emergency.
