MIDDLETOWN >> In honor of National Fire Prevention Week, CAL FIRE Sonoma-Lake Napa Unit, Middletown Fire Station and South Lake Fire Protection District will host an open house/ open fire station at the CAL FIRE Middletown Fire Station on Saturday between 9 a.m. and noon.
Sonoma-Lake-Napa Unit Chief Scott Upton stated, “Open houses provide the community and fire service personnel an opportunity to discuss fire and life safety actions, outside of an emergency incident.”
Chief Upton invites all to visit the fire house, take a tour of the fire station and the new fire safe garden, see the equipment close up and visit with CAL FIRE personnel.
The 2014 National Fire Prevention Week theme is “Working Smoke Alarms Save Lives! Test Yours Every Month.” Some families choose the first day of the month or the last day of the month to check their smoke alarm.
For more information about fire safety or prescribed fire and its benefits visit the CAL FIRE website at www.fire.ca.gov.
The CAL FIRE Middletown Fire Station is located at 15522 Lake St. in Middletown.
