September 1st is Japan’s national Disaster Prevention Day（防災の日, bosai no hi）, and each year around this time Meguro City carries out a “Meguro City General Disaster Prevention Drill”. The drill includes handling of equipment and materials, provision of emergency foods, rescue operations, experiences in an earthquake simulation truck and fire simulation house, and other exhibitions. Interpretation will be available. As it may be quite hot on that day, participants should wear a hat and drink plenty of liquids.
