Friday was Fire Prevention Day. The Bowmansville Fire Company and Fivepointville Ambulance Company came to Brecknock. The kids were so excited to go through the “Smoke House” for the first time. It’s like a mini house on wheels where the fire fighters discuss fire safety tips. After the class goes upstairs to the “bedroom”, they fill the house with fake smoke (like a giant fog machine) and the smoke detector goes off. This gives learners a chance to practice crawling to stay below the smoke and exit.   The EMTs introduced us to the equipment they use in the ambulance and when they go out on calls. Everyone was invited to climb through the fire truck and ambulance to check them out and got to take home a key chain and fire helmet too.
