On this page you will learn some of the basic things
you can do to prevent a fire from damaging your life.
Fire Prevention Education is one of the most rewarding
programs you could participate in, whether you are a resident,
child or parent, teacher or firefighter. The knowledge gained,
"KNOWING
WHAT TO DO", through attending or teaching these programs
could save your life or the life of someone near and dear. Once
a fire starts... there's no time to develop a plan!
The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) estimates
that approximately 80 percent of all fire deaths in the United
States and Canada occur in the Home. Roughly 11 people per day,
die in home fires in the US and Canada.
Many lives can be saved if people React immediately when a
fire alarm sounds. Once a fire starts, there's no time to
develop a plan. The NFPA urges everyone to
"KNOW WHEN TO GO".
