In order to commemorate Fire
Prevention Week, the St. Charles Fire Department will be hosting an open house
at Fire Station #1, 112 N. Riverside Avenue on Saturday, October 15, from noon
to 3pm. The members of the Fire Department would like to encourage everyone to
stop by, talk with the firefighters and take a tour of the fire station. Several
exhibitions will be held throughout the day including: fire extinguisher
demonstrations, special rescue operations, and a live burn/sprinkler
demonstration. The purpose of the burn is to demonstrate how effective
residential sprinklers can be in combating home fires. There will be activities
for children and refreshments will be available. Many informational displays
will also be presented for department programs and general safety concerns. The
Fire Department would like to acknowledge the generous financial support from
Lowes and all of the companies that will be participating at this year’s event.
