Ce soir, les Rockland Nationals ont eu le plaisir d’accueillir le Service de prévention des incendies de la Cité de Clarence‑Rockland pour notre mise au jeu protocolaire.
Cette visite est l’occasion de rappeler l’importance de :
✅ Vérifier régulièrement vos détecteurs de fumée
✅ Vérifier vos détecteurs de monoxyde de carbone
✅ Entreposer et charger vos piles au lithium de façon sécuritaire

Tonight, the Rockland Nationals were pleased to welcome the City of Clarence‑Rockland Fire Department for our ceremonial puck drop.
This was a great opportunity to remind everyone to: ✅ Regularly check your smoke alarms
✅ Test your carbon monoxide detectors
✅ Properly store and charge lithium batteries
Simple prevention measures can make a big difference in keeping our families and community safe.
