Our team has been busy visiting our local schools to speak about fire prevention. Our lessons included education about smoke detectors, fire being a tool (not a toy), escape plans, stay low in smoke, keeping bedroom doors closed at night, what a firefighter wears, and cooking safety (age appropriate). The schools we visited were:
1. Lake Hills2. Holmes 3. Jeffers4. St. Mary's 5. Local daycares
We held a contest with each elementary school. The students entered a contest to submit their home escape plans and each school winner received a ride to school in a fire engine! Congratulations to our winners: Ethan, Ryan, Olivia, and Thomas!
Thank you to Crockery Township Fire Department for helping us present!
