Great Falls Volunteer Fire Department to Host Open House

National Fire Prevention Week concludes this Saturday with the Great Falls Volunteer Fire Department hosting an Open House. Bring the family by for an education-filled event, with activities for the children, games, give-always, hands-only CPR instruction, and the always popular fire truck and ambulance climb-aboard. Firefighters, paramedics, and EMTs will be on hand for demonstrations and information. This year’s campaign, “Charge into Fire Safety™: Lithium-Ion Batteries in Your Home,” works to educate everyone about using these batteries safely. The campaign stresses how important it is to buy, charge, and recycle safely when it comes to lithium-ion batteries.
