Onsendojo Co., Ltd. (Tokigawa-town, Saitama Prefecture; Representative Director: Toshiki Yamazaki) will host a 'Disaster Preparedness Workshop' on Sunday, June 7, 2026, at its hot spring facility, the Showa-retro style 'Tamagawa Onsen' (Tokigawa-town, Saitama Prefecture).
This workshop, organized with the support of the local fire department, provides attendees with the opportunity to learn about disaster prevention through lectures and hands-on experience in building sandbags and understanding their effectiveness. The event also features activities for children, such as trying on firefighter uniforms and taking photos with a fire truck.
Localized heavy rainfall and subsequent water-related disasters are increasing across Japan. Tokigawa-town itself suffered damages in 2022 due to heavy rain, including landslides and river flooding.
