Slideshow: Emergency Preparedness Flash Mob Takes City Hall

Participants braved the afternoon heat to promote emergency preparedness yesterday.

Some 30 people gathered in front of City Hall yesterday, as part of a city-organized “flash mob” raising awareness of disaster preparedness.

The kid-aimed event began with a question-and-answer session for the little ones, complete with emergency pack prizes. Then it was time for the main event: a group dance to a hip-hop inflected preparedness song.  

KUT News intern Filipa Rodrigues snapped these photos of the event yesterday.
