These check-points are held at Fire Station 1. Firefighter Phil- Firefighter Phil is a program that sends our members to local schools to teach kids about who we are and what to do in the event of a fire. Last year the program taught fire safety lessons to 3,752 students in grades K-4. The Aluminum Cans For Burned Children Smoke House is a modified camper trailer that is taken to Greater Cleveland Schools to teach kids about fire safety. The children are given a classroom presentation and then are taken into the trailer where they go though practical evolutions on fire safety, basic fire behavior, and how to react during a fire.
All stations accept aluminum cans.
The cans are recycled and the money goes to ACBC to benefit children injured by fire and support the fire safety trailer. You are a vital link in the EMS system. Our EMS personnel need your help before we get to the scene of a cardiac emergency. The EFD also offers free CPR training on-site to the staff of local businesses. The EFD takes part in local Health Fairs by bringing a rescue squad to display, fire safety literature, CPR info, and personnel.
