📌West End Elementary on Tuesday, October 7th.

📌 West Pine Elementary on Wednesday, October 15th.

We take great pride in being able to teach the young students in our community and assist in the next generation of Firefighter/ EMTs

What did we talk about?

🔔 •The importance of smoke detectors homes and what to do when one goes off. Also the importance of a family meeting place.

🧯•The acronym “PASS” for a fire extinguisher operation “Pull. Aim. Squeeze. Sweep”

💨🏠🔥
•Stay Low & Go and Get Out, Stay Out.

👨🏼‍🚒👩🏼‍🚒
•Each presentation was concluded by firefighters demonstrating donning PPE in a “quick dress” state if an emergency call was made.

🚒The students were given a tour of Engine 611, Heavy Rescue 619 and Squad 61 to allow them to visualize what all equipment is carried when they see a fire truck and to allow them to ask questions about the fire truck, and to walk through the fire truck.

🫱🏼‍🫲🏽We appreciate the opportunity to serve the community and visitors and we look forward to seeing the children next year!! Stay safe!
