Join us for the 2024 Community Shakeout - Thurs Oct 17
An earthquake of significant magnitude could occur on Vancouver Island at any time, potentially exceeding the capacity of our emergency response system to provide immediate assistance for an extended period.
To help the community be better prepared for this and other scenarios, the City of Campbell River and the Strathcona Regional District are sponsoring the 2024 ShakeOut Self-Guided Exercise and various First Aid and Radio certification courses.
➡️ At 10:17 a.m. on Thursday, October 17 – Drop, Cover and Hold On for five minutes. After the “shaking” stops, count to 60 and begin your evacuation immediately by getting safe and moving out of the area.
➡️ 10:24 a.m. – If you are starting in the downtown flooding zone, proceed to evacuate to your closest area outside of the flooding zone on foot or by bicycle. When you safely reach an area outside of the flooding zone, check to see how long it took you to evacuate your area.
➡️ Take a selfie and post them to Facebook or Instagram, or email them to preparedness@srd.ca. Tag @strathconaregionaldistrict and use the hashtag #ShakeOutThenGetOut2024.
Everyone who submits their selfies by 4 p.m. on Friday, October 18, 2024, will be entered to win one of several household emergency preparedness prizes, with the grand prize being a Household Wildfire Sprinkler Protection Kit!
Earthquake First Aid and Basic Amateur (Ham) Radio Certification Courses are also available, for details, read the full media advisory at srd.ca/news
