MONDAY, October 6, 2025 Room & Zoom Meeting in Peacock Hall (Movie Theater) from 10 am to 12 pm.

 

Join Rossmoor Emergency Preparedness Organization (EPO) as they welcome International ShakeOut Drill Global Director Mark Benthien who will tutor our vulnerable senior community in earthquake safety and resiliency.

 

Because Mark Benthien was not able to attend the meeting on October 6, 2025, we are re-playing the recording of Mark's presentation from October 2, 2023, but will have another representative from the Earthquake Country Alliance (ECA) to answer questions after the video is played.

 

Learn how to “drop” down on your hands and knees, how to “cover” your head and neck with your arms while taking shelter under a sturdy desk or table and how to “hold on” until the shaking stops — and how to protect yourself until the shaking stops based on your physical abilities and mobility challenges.
