Bristol Fire Company (Station 51) Offers Fire Safety Pointers and Fun in Wal-Mart Parking Lot on Sunday October 27th

Missed your chance to learn about Fire Prevention earlier this month?  Not a problem, Bristol Fire Company (Station 51) will offer up a day of fire safety pointers and family fun on Sunday, October 27 in the Wal-Mart parking lot at Route 13 & 413 in Bristol.  The free event will be held from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Station 51’s fire prevention team will be on-site to demonstrate ways to prevent house fires and ways to stay safe if a fire were to occur.  There will be kid-friendly activities including a moon bounce, a DJ playing the today’s latest hits, and free snacks. 

“Fire Safety and Prevention should not be a topic that only lasts a week; it is a topic that should last a lifetime.  That’s why we are reinforcing this message at our October 27 event,” said Bristol Fire Chief Herb Slack.

Chief Slack also hopes adult attendees will take the time to learn about the various volunteer opportunities which exist within Station 51. “We are always in need of firefighters, but we do not just seek volunteers as firefighters. There are ample opportunities to put your clerical, HR, book-keeping and event assistance skills to much-needed use as a volunteer,” he stresses.
