Don’t Burn
On Wednesday, Governor Edward Rendell declared Oct. 4-10 Fire Prevention week, and the Warren Fire Department is fully participating. Warren Fire Department Operations/Training Officer Joe Beardsley said residents should feel welcome to stop by the department to see the station and equipment and view educational materials during Fire Prevention Week. The Department will be visiting schools and daycares in Warren throughout October to discuss Fire Prevention and encourages parents to review the materials they bring home. This year, the Fire Prevention Week theme is “Stay Fire Smart! Don’t Get Burned.” Beardsley said he believes many home fires are easily preventable by taking simple steps to increase safety from fires whether it’s smoking outside the home, keeping space heaters at least three feet away from anything that can burn or staying in the kitchen when using the stove top.
