Natalie Green and Dalena Duong from the Luskin Events team touched down at a recent NFL travel directors conference in New Orleans to promote the Luskin Hotel as a destination for teams playing in Los Angeles. The hotel has hosted a number of professional football teams in recent years, including the New England Patriots, the L.A. Rams and the 2022 Super Bowl contending Cincinnati Bengals.

Simulator shakes it up

UCLA’s Office of Emergency Management (OEM) recently partnered with the Governor’s Office of Emergency Services to bring an earthquake simulator to UCLA’s Wilson Plaza. More than 100 Bruins shook their way through a 7.0 magnitude earthquake simulation for a few minutes and picked up valuable preparedness information during the four-hour event. The earthquake
simulator will return to UCLA in time for October’s Great ShakeOut earthquake drill! In the meantime, be sure to download the MyShakeApp in the App Store and Google Play for quake alerts and warnings.


 

A “wheelie” great giveaway!
