This year, the official Fire Prevention Week poster celebrates fire fighters as leaders in community safety by featuring a fire fighter in station gear talking about home escape planning with a group of kids. The campaign already has a proven track record. Between now and October, fire departments will use the FPW planning toolkit to prepare families in their communities for a unified North American fire drill.
Participation is free of charge.
Participants will receive five issues and idea papers on this vital subject, each prepared by a national or international expert. The symposium will include hands-on training at the U.S. Naval Training Center. Training sessions, food service and lodging will be on the Center at the Base of Operations. Accommodations will be in field tents. Deadline for registration is Sept. 20, 2000.
