October is Fire Prevention Month, and our volunteer firefighters met with Pre-K thru 2nd grade East Rochester Union Free Schools students this past week. We talked about when to call 911, the importance of having a plan to get out of their home, and what to do if they can’t get out. Students were shown what our members would look like when they are in full gear, and the inside and outside of a fire truck. 1st and 2nd graders got to see some of the tools we use, and got to have a little fun using a fire hose.
We also drove our trucks around with lights and sirens meeting with students at their meeting spots last week. Students were given a prize for practicing their exit plan.
Meeting with the kids every year is one of the many things we do as members of the East Rochester Fire Department. If you have a desire to do more for your community, and are interested in becoming a volunteer firefighter, please reach out by sending us a message on our social media, or give us a call and leave a message at 585-381-1112.

This month is Fire Prevention Month, and we’ll be visiting kids this month to review fire safety, and what to do in the event of a fire.
Part of this will be reviewing/developing an exit plan to get out of the house. When making your plan, you should think about the following items:

- Find two ways out
- All windows and doors should open easily
- You should be able to use them to get outside
- Make sure your home has smoke alarms
-Push the test button to make sure each alarm is working
- Pick a meeting place outside
- It should be somewhere near the street in front of your home
- Everyone will meet at the meeting place
- Make sure your house or building number can be seen from the street.
- Talk about your plan with everyone in your home
- Practice your home fire drill routinely

On Wednesday, October 7th this week, we’ll be putting the kids to the test. At 6pm, we’ll start driving down our streets with lights and sirens. When you hear us, we want them to practice their escape plan and go to their meeting spot. When we come by, we’ll meet them there and give them a prize!
We look forward to seeing them at their meeting spots!
