2025 Great Oregon ShakeOut

The Great ShakeOut is an earthquake drill designed to help Oregonians practice how to "Drop, Cover, and Hold On" during an earthquake. In 2025, it will take place on Thursday, October 16 at 10:16 a.m. Wherever you are, you should DROP, COVER, and HOLD ON as if there were an earthquake occurring at that very moment.
