At last week’s Rotary meeting Chris Villegas was the Rotary guest speaker. Her presentation was a reminder of the January 17, 1994 Northridge Earthquake. She showed pictures of the damage in downtown Fillmore as well as homes that fell off of their foundations. Chris also talked about the steps you can take to make your home safe and also what is needed for an emergency kit. For more information plan to attend a virtual event, January 18 at 7:00, put on by the Fillmore Historical Museum called Shaken, Rattled and Recovered.
