We are doing everything we can to make sure ​emergencies don’t happen. But if they do, we want ​you to be safe and prepared.

Medical Emergency

In case of medical emergency, find a volunteer in a ​gray festival t-shirt or a security guard. There is a first ​aid kit at the info booth. There is an AED located at the ​Elkhorn Valley Public Health Department booth.

Severe Weather

Tornado Icon

Seek shelter inside, get inside as quickly as possible ​and gather in the hallway outside of the bathrooms. ​Leave all belongings behind. Stay away from windows.


Fire

If there is a fire in the building, get outside as quickly ​as possible using a window or door. Pull the fire alarm ​on your way out. Leave all belongings behind. Go to a ​parking lot on the east side of Queen City Blvd.


If there is a fire outside, get away from the fire as ​quickly as possible. Leave all belongings behind. Go to ​a parking lot on the east side of Queen City Blvd.

Fire Icon

Active Shooter

Run.

Hide.

Fight.

You have three options in an active shooter ​situation: run, hide, or fight.


RUN: Quickly and cautiously evacuate in a direction ​away from the attacker. Leave belongings behind. Keep ​your empty hands raised and clearly visible when exiting ​a building. Follow all instructions from the police. Don't ​stop until you're sure you've reached a safe location.


HIDE: If there is no safe escape route, find a good ​hiding place. Lock and barricade the door. Silence cell ​phones. Prepare a defense plan.


FIGHT: Fight only as a last resort. Use available objects ​as improvised weapons. Use teamwork and surprise. ​You're fighting for your life. Don't fight fair!
