Fire Prevention Week

From Fire Official
Throughout the month of October, the Fire Prevention Bureau, together with the fire department, visited nine public, private, and religious schools to educate students on fire safety. Students learned important lessons about staying safe at home, including the value of working smoke and carbon monoxide detectors and the need for a family emergency plan.

They especially enjoyed exploring the fire truck, seeing a firefighter in full protective gear, and even spraying the fire hose. The program was a tremendous success, reaching and positively impacting more than 800 students and teachers. View Photos.
