Free seminar at 3 PM, Sunday, February 25th, 2024.
Register in advance to reserve your spot! Want to know what’s at risk where you live, work, and play? What are your nearby geo risks? Join us for Be GeoHazard Smart in Beaverton, a free seminar on 2/25/24. You’ll learn about fault lines, liquefaction, landslides, and flooding – and what you can do to stay safe and prepared. Our speaker, Aaron Fox is a noted geologist and a top-notch emergency management coordinator. He’ll describe GEO HAZARDS in and around the Beaverton and Portland areas. He’ll also talk about tools you can use to learn about the hazards in places where you spend the most time. What should you be doing to make your home resilient once you know the geo threats? Rick Eilers from Prepare NW, will present ideas for making your living space safer with seismic upgrades. Be safer, be ready, and be aware! We'll meet at Cedar Hills UCC, 11695 SW Park Way, Portland, OR. This venue has plenty of FREE parking. If the weather is bad, we'll set up a Zoom link and meet virtually. Space is limited, so register early at: https://tinyurl.com/quakeprep022524 |
Neighborhood readiness is a simple, fun way to get to know our neighbors so that you aren’t alone or isolated in a disaster. With a minimal amount of time and energy, you and your neighbors can learn a tried-and-true 9-step survival strategy and craft a plan to follow when a catastrophe hits. If you live in Cedar Hills or Beaverton, Oregon, and you'd like to host a Neighborhood Ready! meeting on your block, you can contact us for help. We can provide facilitators for your meeting, handouts, and booklets. Check out our information sheet for hosts in Cedar Hills. Check out our Neighborhood Ready! page for more detailed information.
