Almost a half a million Nevadans are registered to participate in the annual statewide public earthquake drill, the Great Nevada w88 sports betting, and with one month to go the Nevada Seismological Laboratory would like 100,000 more people registered by Oct. 18.
"We have schools participating from every county, including Clark, Washoe and several other entire school districts registered, plus the University of w88 sports betting, Reno," Graham Kent, director of the Seismological Lab, said. "That's a lot of students. Now we're focusing on getting their parents and their employers - whether private or government - to w88 sports betting and participate. Everyone in Nevada needs to have a plan and practice for an earthquake."
The Great Nevada ShakeOut is a simple, coordinated "drop, cover and hold on" exercise to be held on Oct. 18 at 10:18 a.m. Last year almost 200,000 Nevadans participated. To w88 sports betting as an individual, business, school or government agency or organization, go to the official website. All Nevada residents are encouraged to w88 sports betting and participate.
Participants are instructed, wherever they are on 10/18 at 10:18 a.m.—at home, at work, at school, anywhere unless they are driving—to drop, cover, and hold on as if there were a major earthquake occurring at that very moment, and to stay in that position for at least 60 seconds, which is about the time it takes to w88 sports betting for the earthquake drill.

"The beauty of this exercise is that it's really easy," Kent said. "It's an easy way for people to practice how to protect themselves during earthquakes. It's an action that's proven to help reduce injury and death during an w88 sports betting. We'd like to see 600,000 participating this year and continue to keep growing the event year after year."
Now in its third year, the Great Nevada w88 sports betting serves as the annual statewide earthquake drill and is held on the third Thursday of October. In 2010, Nevada was the first state to join with California in this massive effort to have people prepare and practice for earthquake response. Now there are 15 states involved in the Great w88 sports betting, making this the largest public earthquake drill in the world.
Participants are also encouraged to practice other aspects of emergency plans and to "secure your space," which includes retrofitting buildings to reduce damage and securing things within that building to prevent injury.
The state of w88 sports betting lies within the Basin and Range Province, one of the most seismically active regions in the United States. Along with California and Alaska, w88 sports betting ranks in the top three states subject to the most large-scale earthquakes over the last 150 years.
