California Prepares



Arnold Schwarzenegger, our governor, authorized the Golden Guardian program to coordinate efforts to prepare California's citizens for earthquakes. See Link on the side.

We had the statewide ShakeOut November 13th. Wherever you were that day, did you "Duck, Cover and Hold On" at 10:30 am? We at the Family History Center did that. We had good sturdy tables to duck under. Every household in the ward, I believe,(or they should have) got a phone call from someone to see if they were OK.

In our son's ward in Santa Ana, they pretended that all phone lines (including cell towers) were down and there was no electricity. Members walked to each others homes to check on them.

There are so many resources to help us get prepared. I implore you to seek them out and evaluate what your weaknesses are in this area and resolve to strengthen them.
