We would like to thank Mr. Bud Stuart and Mr. Glen Bartley for coming in and speaking to the students about fire safety, during this, Fire Safety Month.  Their presentation included a video featuring "Nero and Ashcan" two characters that told students what to do to prevent fires or in case of fire.  Glen showed the students how firefighters dressed and as they were able to watch him dress the little ones were not afraid of what he looked like when he was finished.

     Questions about  what to do in case of a fire, and whom to call were answered.  Mr. Stuart explained to the students how important it is they know their address.  Students who live on the farm need to learn their section / township / range or legal description of the land to help rescue teams arrive quickly.  Children understood that the fire department could also help in case of other emergencies.

     Knowing where the exits are and how to escape in case of fire was discussed.  The importance of making a family plan and having a family meeting place in case of fire should be discussed in all families. 

    Thanks again to Glen and Bud for their excellent presentation.
