Fire Prevention Week 2024 - St. Michael's School
Email Print RSS Facebook Twitter RSS

By Vice President / Lieutenant Scot Best
October 7, 2024

On October 7th, Ridge VFD visited St. Michael's Catholic School in Ridge. The students, from Pre-K to 5th Grade, were treated to a presentation on this year's theme, “Smoke Alarms: Make them work for you!” Fire Prevention educators, along with the help of Sparky the Fire Dog, shared fire prevention and safety tips specific to smoke alarms, their purpose, and where they should be placed. Students were also reminded of the importance of making and practicing a fire escape plan with the whole family.

After the presentation, the students were given an up-close tour of Squad 4. Firefighters/educators displayed equipment and gear from the various compartments while explaining how they are used. The kids loved it! Following the tour, each student was given a goodie bag full of safety information, coloring/activity books, and stickers.

Ridge VFD wants to thank the staff and students from St. Michael's School for allowing us to come by and share some fire safety information!

Units: Squad 4
