Slow Down When Passing Emergency Vehicles Because It's No Picnic Out There!
Hot Summer Nights
Content
On Thursday evenings in July and August, the Maple Ridge Fire Department visits various community neighbourhoods - both pre-announced and random locations - after 6:30 pm.
Most often the public sees fire crews when they are busy at an emergency scene; thus they are unapproachable. This program allows the public to see its Fire Department in a different light and interact with the firefighters. People will be able to:
- ask the crew questions; seek advice on summer safety and fire safety in general
- check out the fire trucks and equipment
- try some "hands-on" activities
- have some fun
- learn something!
Very inclement weather or emergency calls will impact on Fire Department attendance.
