FIRE PREVENTION WEEK

2022

During this year's Fire Prevention Week, our Department was visited by two Project Headway Preschool classes and three Oak Bluffs School’s Kindergarten classes. Deputy Fire Chief Stephen Foster, Captain Kyle Gatchell, Firefighter/EMT Shawn Trepanier, Paramedic Bradley Carroll, EMT Belle Dinning, and EMT Chris Shiels led numerous interactive and educational demonstrations at the Station. Students got to explore the interior and exterior of the Ambulances and Firetrucks; learned what to do if there is a fire or medical emergency, and much more!

Thank you to Card My Yard Martha's Vineyard for making this Fire Prevention Week extra special!


2021

During this year's Fire Prevention Week, our Department was visited by the Oak Bluffs School’s Kindergarten classes who were eager to explore the Station and learn about public safety. Paramedic Luke Cote showed them our ambulances and explained the importance of dialing 911 only in emergency situations. Deputy Fire Chief Stephen Foster educated the students on fire safety, fire prevention, and how our apparatuses operate. A live demonstration of how firefighters don and doff their turnout gear was provided by Firefighter and EMT Shawn Trepanier. Each child also took turns using Engine 522’s hose to put out a mock fire with the help of Captain Kyle Gatchell.
