The San Diego Fire-Rescue Department held two open houses for Fire Prevention Week.
It is the longest-running public health observance in the U.S., according to the National Fire Protection Association. This year’s theme for fire prevention is, “Cooking safety starts with YOU. Pay attention to fire prevention.”
“Fires often occur in the kitchen, so it’s a common place for house fires to start,” Mark Reece, a battalion chief with SDFD, said. “So to prevent that, you want to make sure your appliances are in good working order, make sure you have a CO detector, smoke detector in your house.” Reece was at SDFD Station 37 on Spring Canyon Road in Scripps Ranch on Saturday. He told NBC 7 he loves the opportunity to invite community members in to see the way firefighters both work and live.with two fire station open houses on Sat., Oct. 14 from 10am-2pm. Meet your neighborhood firefighters, see rescue demonstrations & see a search dog in action. Also safety info and fun for the kids.
Chatmon has been with the department for about one year and loves his job. He said being able to share his work and passion with young visitors is rewarding.The second SDFD open house was held at Station 29 on San Ysidro Boulevard in San Ysidro.
