October is Fire Prevention Month! The goal of Fire Prevention Month (and week October 9th - 15th) is to raise fire safety awareness, and help ensure your home and family is protected. During this month, fire departments provide education to their communities, and encourage parents and loved ones to practice fire prevention and whole home safety. The NFPA's 2022 campaign for Fire Safety Month is "Fire Won't Wait, Plan Your Escape."
While the fire departments will be out educating this month we here at 911 want to recognize the men and women of the fire departments located in Colbert County. We are fortunate to have 14 Volunteer Fire Departments and 3 Paid Fire Departments in this county. Each day we will recognize one of these departments.
Remember to practice fire safety and have your escape plan ready.
