Penn Forest Streams Firewise Day 2008

Saturday, July 19, 2008

Jim Shaffer - FFW, George Maehrer - FFW, Kevin Maehrer SAFFW, and Smokey Bear


Every year, Firewise Communities are required to conduct a Firewise Day.  As the Firewise program is intended to teach Wildland Urban Interface fire safety, these programs are almost always conducted in conjunction with the local fire department.  This represents WFFWA's involvement in one such event.

 

We met at Penn Forest Twp. Vol. Fire Co. #1, where Smokey got ready and boarded one of their engines, for the short trip to the event.  Upon arrival at the event, Smokey walked around, meeting and greeting adults and children alike.  Smokey returned to Penn Forest's engine where he waited a time while some people left the event and others arrived.  He then made a second visit to the event.
