Firefighters across the nation are taking all of October for activities as part of National Fire Safety Month. Annually, fire crews take this time out to teach fire safety—especially to school students.
Vincennes Fire Department fireman Adam Ray says the emphasis on hands-on participation begins as early as kindergarten. There are four Vincennes Fire Department locations across town. Fireman Jim Beaman says the City’s constant train traffic is a major reason why.
The fire safety emphasis in October has been a decades-long emphasis—especially for students to help educate themselves, and their families.
