Fire Prevention Week October 3 – 9, 2010

Did you know that this year's campaign is all about the importance of smoke alarms! Did you know all the neat activities available to parents, kids, teachers and firefighters on the National Fire Protection Association web site? Well if not, what are you waiting for ---- check it out at www.nfpa.org/.

Even though my Dad was both a paid firefighter and then a volunteer and my sons were both volunteers, I did not realize all the neat activities available to learn about fire prevention and yes, they are FREE (do you see a reoccurring theme in some of the SERC Library blog postings)! Okay, I did get distracted by one posting under the Latest News; Do you have a smoking firehouse recipe for chill? Yes, firefighters are good cooks, and yes, often when we stopped by the fire house when Dad was on, the firemen took us kids over to the bakery and bought us donuts (chocolate covered!) and spoiled our dinner, but seriously, who can resist looking at recipes! So just a quick peek at those and then on to the important activities!

AND check your smoke alarms!!!!
