Hi Azilda,
For the past few years we have picked random neighborhoods where we believe many children were present. The areas already picked were Fleetwood/Country Club, Maple/Oak Street and Parkview Drive.
Next Thursday June 5th ~5:45PM, we are looking for a neighborhood with a lot of children where we can educate and practice your Home Fire Escape plan. Please comment below for your neighborhood and we will try and choose one of the areas. What we ask from you is to have your "Fire Escape Plan" ready for then. Please visit the link below for help on creating your Fire Escape Plan.

The plan is that the fire truck will arrive in the selected neighborhood between 5:30PM-6:00PM, once you hear the sirens of the fire truck that will signal/activate your “Fire Escape Plan”. There will be firefighters walking the street to greet the children/parents and answer any questions you have. Then at ~7PM we will work our way to Whitewater Park where we will have the trucks/equipment for display and will also have an activity for the children where they can use the water hose and nozzle.
Please keep in mind that we are on call 24/7 and that this can be cancelled at anytime without proper notice due to a fire call.
Thank you and hope to see you at the park June 5th.
Your firefighters from Station 10
