Firefighters plan safety fair for kids

A free community safety fair to help children learn first-hand about “stop, drop and roll” and how firefighters put out a fire will be Saturday from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Brelsford WSU Visitor Center, 150 E. Spring St. in Pullman. Families also will get a first-hand look at a police car and drones, speak with a dispatcher and learn about environmental and general health and safety.

Pullman Fire Department will coordinate an array of hands-on fire safety activities. Firefighters will lead children and adults through an agility training course on the visitor center lawn that will include a cut-out house prop with “fire” in need of extinguishing with a hose.

Fire trucks, an ambulance, police vehicles and vehicle extrication tools will be on display.
