What to Expect
At our "Know 2 Ways Out" fire safety event, you can expect an eye-opening experience designed to highlight the importance of fire preparedness. One of the main attractions will be a live burn trailer demonstration, where we'll set a mock home on fire to show just how quickly a fire can spread. This powerful visual will emphasize the need for having at least two escape routes in case of an emergency. Join us to learn life-saving tips, engage with safety experts, and gain a deeper understanding of fire safety in a way that could make all the difference.
In addition to the burn trailer simulation, there will be hands-on demonstrations of proper fire extinguisher use, along with informative booths offering valuable fire safety insights.
