Learning about fire on Prevention Day

Posted

The Woodmere Fire Department opened the doors to its firehouse at 20 Irving Place in Woodmere for Fire Prevention Day on Oct. 15.

Through the four-hour event, children of all ages were allowed to try on firefighter gear, get on the trucks and check out the ambulance. They also learned how a fire is extinguished, and what other tools the volunteer first responders use during emergencies. There was also food and prizes.
