From the Desk of Judi!

This week's topic is:

That's why the theme for this year's Fire Prevention Week (FPW) is "Team Up for Fire Safety™." It's a simple idea: team up with the people with whom you live, work, play, and worship so that all of you will be better prepared to prevent, and if necessary, survive a fire.

Be Safe!
