FIRE PREVENTION AND EDUCATION
Your home should be a safe haven. But do you regularly
check for home fire hazards? If not, there is the potential for danger!
Fire Departments responded to nearly 400,000 home fires in 2006. That's
why the theme of Fire Prevention Week 2008 is "It's Fire Prevention Week:
Prevent Home Fires!"
From October 5-11, 2008, fire safety advocates will spread
the word to their communities that, with a little extra caution, preventing the
leading causes of home fires - cooking, heating, electrical, and smoking
materials is within their power.
