Focus on Fire Safety: Protect Your Family from Fire

Fires can strike anywhere – in buildings, automobiles, and the outdoors – but fires that affect our homes are often the most tragic and the most preventable.

 

Over 75% percent of all fire fatalities occur in home fires.

 

This year's National Fire Prevention Week (October 9-15) theme is Protect Your Family from Fire. You can protect your family by:

  • Installing smoke alarms on every level of your home,
  • Testing smoke alarms once a month,
  • Changing smoke alarm batteries at least once a year, and
  • Making and practicing a home fire escape plan.

The Gales Ferry Volunteer Fire Company organized in 1942 to safeguard the residents and property of the village of Gales Ferry and town of Ledyard from various threats.  These include responses to fire, motor vehicle accidents (MVAs), hazardous materials releases, confined space and extrication rescues, and medical emergencies. 

We are seeking volunteers to serve as Firefighters, Apparatus Driver/Operators, Rescue Team Members and Fire Police.  If you'd like to know more please click here.
