The Bay Area commemorated the disastrous 1906 San Francisco earthquake last year. Are you ready for the big one that’s coming?
 
GET SMART! Disaster professionals say the most important thing we can do is be prepared to survive for 72 hours in our homes. This first line of defense, called “Shelter in Place,” will save the most lives. To help you prepare, Marin County Fire Department is offering a two-hour course to teach you what to do before, during and after a regional disaster.
 
GET TRAINED! That’s all it takes - two hours. You owe it to your family. You owe it to your neighbors. You owe it to your community.
