National Fire Prevention Week was held from Oct 3rd-9th, 2021. The Epworth Fire Department was busy visiting all of the schools in Epworth. This year we were able to reach over 125 kids who participated in our annual program. The EFD demonstrated our equipment and gave tours of our vehicles to the students. During the EFD's presentation, we taught fire safety and let the kids have hands on time with our equipment. We also allowed the opportunity to handle the hoses and spray water. Here are some pictures from the week. The EFD would like to thank the local schools for allowing us to be part of the fire prevention week activities.
