Celebrate preparedness at the
10th Santa Clarita Emergency Expo. The Expo provides residents the opportunity
to visit with the various agencies that provide, and support emergency services
in the community. In addition to the various displays and apparatus that are
on display, there are also opportunities to learn about emergency preparedness
and safety. This year a new competition called the "Bucket Brigade"will
be available for participants 4 years and older. Also brought back popular demand
is the "Santa Clarita Quake Walk," for chance to win more great
prizes. For participants who know the "rules of the road," the Share
the Road campaign will again have opportunities to win bicycle helmets.
Finally in honor of the Expo's 10-year existence, the Castaic and Santa Clarita
Lions Club will serve a pancake breakfast available (10:00 am to 12 noon) for
a nominal fee. Don't miss out on the fun, and the learning experience, stop
by the Saugus Speedway from 10:00 A.M. to 3:00 P.M. on Saturday, April 6, 2002.
