NAPPANEE - Hoping to reduce the deaths and injuries from home fires, ACT Nappanee-Wakarusa is emphasizing home fire awareness at its booth at the June 16 Friday Fest, 5 to 8 p.m. in Nappanee.
The booth will be in the Downtown Pavilion, 201 W. Market St., Nappanee.
A game for children to win fire hats and fire-awareness toys and stickers will allow adults a chance to gather materials to plan a home fire escape plan. Residents who do not yet have smoke detectors can sign up for free detectors and installation by teams from the American Red Cross, which is cooperating with this event.
ACT Nappanee-Wakarusa also encourages everyone to check the age of your home’s existing smoke detectors. If more than 10 years old, the sensors in home smoke detectors are probably bad and the detector should be replaced.
ACT Nappanee-Wakarusa is a civic organization of Independent, Progressive and Democrat voters who work to Advance Community Together in the Nappanee, Wakarusa and nearby areas of Elkhart County.
