The Drumheller Fire Department, along with Alberta Health Services Ambulance and the Drumheller RCMP, are marking Fire Prevention Week this Sunday with an open house.
Fire Prevention Week is October 4-10. This year’s theme is “Hear the Beep Where You Sleep: Every bedroom needs a working fire alarm.” The Drumheller Fire Hall will be open from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Sunday, October 4 to kick-off a week to salute the service the Fire Department and emergency personnel provides.
On Sunday morning, residents will have a chance to see some of the apparatus and equipment used by these personnel, get a chance to meet and take pictures with members of the department and learn more about how to keep safe.
They will also be holding a barbecue, so residents can enjoy a snack.
The Drumheller Fire Department maintains halls in central Drumheller as well as Rosedale and East Coulee.
