<strong>BOCA</strong> <strong>FIRE</strong> <strong>RESCUE</strong><br />

Fire Prevention Week<br />

On Monday, October 3, 2011, firefighters from<br />

FS2 visited students and teachers at St. Paul Lutheran<br />

School. Firefighters spoke about fire<br />

safety, gave the students a tour <strong>of</strong> their state-<strong>of</strong>the-art<br />

fire truck, and let them handle the hose<br />

just like a real firefighter.<br />

This year the theme for Fire Prevention Week is<br />

“Protect Your Family From Fire.” <strong>Boca</strong> <strong>Raton</strong><br />

Fire Rescue Services wants you to know that fire<br />

safety is everyone’s responsibility. Students<br />

were reminded to practice fire safety, ask their<br />

parents to test their smoke alarms, have in place<br />

and practice an escape plan and use battery operated<br />

lighting instead <strong>of</strong> candles. Firefighters also<br />

talked about Stop, Drop and Roll, dialing 9-1-1<br />

for an emergency, know two ways out, and stay<br />

low under smoke.<br />
