October is Fire Prevention Month

Sun, Oct 6, 2024 – Sat, Oct 12, 2024

In a fire, mere seconds can mean the difference between a safe escape and a tragedy.


Fire safety education isn’t just for school children. Teenagers, adults, and the elderly are also at risk in fires, making it important for every member of the community to take some time every October during Fire Prevention Week to make sure they understand how to stay safe in case of a fire.
