*Media Advisory* Sharon Fire Department to Host Open House Next Week

SHARON – Chief James Wright and the Sharon Fire Department invite community members to an Open House next week to learn about fire safety and prevention practices for the whole family.

WHERE

Sharon Fire Department, 92 S Main St.

WHEN

Wednesday, Oct. 19 from 3 to 5 p.m.

WHAT

This open house commemorates National Fire Safety Month (October). Participants will receive safety tips such as “stop, drop and roll”, learn how to plan escape routes and how to crawl safely through a smoke-filled room. In addition, Papa Gino’s, the Dedham, Mass.-based pizza chain, will provide free pizza and children’s fire safety coloring sheets at the open house.

“This event allows us to reach out to the community and arm local families with fire safety tips and procedures,” said Chief James Wright. “Our open house allows families to get together and better prepares them to react if a fire does start.”
