Smoke Alarm Blitz Success! 🚨

On May 30, the Statesboro Fire Department partnered with the American Red Cross to conduct a Smoke Alarm Blitz in several neighborhoods throughout our community. Thanks to the hard work of firefighters and those from the Red Cross, we installed 62 smoke alarms in 33 homes and provided valuable fire safety education to local families.

Working smoke alarms save lives by providing early warning in the event of a fire. We are proud to continue our commitment to keeping Statesboro safe through proactive outreach, education, and community partnerships.

A special thank you to the American Red Cross and all the volunteers who helped make this event a success!

Our firefighters had an incredible time at Camp RAD! It was awesome connecting with these amazing campers. They were able to learn about fire safety as well as how to use the fire hose!

Thank you to the organizers and the amazing counselors for having us out for yet another year. We are always honored to be able to share these moments with y'all!

We love doing all kinds of community events!
