Although our main job functions are fire extinguishment, medical interventions, and rescue, we also spend some time teaching prevention and safety. In essence, we are trying to put ourselves out of work - but realistically that will never happen. We can however help reduce fires, medical emergencies, and special rescues through education.

Children have a natural fascination towards things they do not fully understand, this includes fire. Many children have been killed, and or permanently disfigured by playing with fire. By starting at a young age we can teach them the importance of fire as tool, and not something to play with. Tools for you the parent to help your children grasp this can be found on the “Fire Safety For Kids” page.
