National Fire Prevention Week Theme: ‘Learn the Sounds of Fire Safety!’

It’s National Fire Prevention Week  – an effort to spread awareness and life-saving tips. Montgomery County Fire and Rescue Service (MCFRS) officials will share daily safety tips about hazards in residents’ homes that are often hidden or overlooked.

In a tweet Monday, MCFRS Chief Scott Goldstein shared prevention tips – including the importance of having a working fire alarm:
