Disaster & Emergency Drill, 2011

Do you want to watch the Disaster & Emergency Drill, 2011?

DATE:September 25 (Sun.) 2011
TIME:8:30 to 12:00

Every year many cities in the Kanto area hold disaster and emergency drills in September, because in 1923 the Great Kanto Earthquake hit the Tokyo area on Sept. 1.

Tsukuba also holds a drill every year. You can watch demonstrations by medical staff (ambulance crews and doctors), the fire department, and utility companies (gas, telephone, electricity).

Some members can also take part in some drills, for example, volunteers using buckets of water to put out a small fire. The drills are very exciting with the big fire engines, rescues from a tall building and even a helicopter!

The event is free, but please register with the Tsukuba International Association if you want to attend.
