Open house at the fire station


Kids love big shiny things and firetrucks is right at the top of their list. Why not sneak a little education in while you let them have fun looking at and interacting with the gear at the local fire station.
Smyrna Fire Department Hosts Open House
Fire Prevention Week Is Coming!
Protect Your Family From Fire!
Sunday October 16, 2011, 1p.m. – 5p.m.
Station 1, 401 West Enon Springs Road
This is fire prevention week and the Smyrna Fire Department has a message for you.
What’s the best way to protect your family from fire? Be ahead of the game, of course. With more than 360,000 home fires reported in the United States in 2009, according to the nonprofit National Fire Protection Association (NFPA), your best defense is a good offense. That’s why Smyrna Fire Department is teaming up with NFPA during the October 9-15, 2011, to let our community know: “It’s Fire Prevention Week. Protect Your Family From Fire!” This year’s campaign focuses on preventing the leading causes of home fires -- cooking, heating and electrical equipment, as well as candles and smoking materials. Additionally, it urges people to protect their homes and families with life-saving technology and planning.
I hope you and your kids have fun at their open house.
