Boston Fire holding fire safety plan contest for Boston students

This time at home is a great opportunity to create or review your fire safety plan. Any Boston student that submits their plan, (draw a picture, write a story, or make a video), will be entered into a drawing to win prizes. Grand prize is a special fire truck visit. Other prizes include Target gift cards and safety reminders. Email your plans to michelle.mccourt@boston.gov by June 15.

Don’t forget. your plan needs working smoke detectors. You’ll need to have two ways out of every room and a safe meeting place outside. Practice crawling low under smoke and checking to make sure the door isn’t hot before you open it. For more information on creating a plan please visit the National Fire Protection Association website.
