Tonight, some of our members joined Springfield Emergency Communications and Springfield Fire and Emergency Services at the Annual Hometown Heroes Hockey Game. This wonderful collaboration allowed us to share important fire and life safety information with the community.
We talked about community helpers, home escape planning, cooking safety, and the proper use and disposal of lithium-ion batteries to help prevent fires. Springfield Emergency Communications discussed how and when to call 9-1-1 and shared important updates in emergency communication technology.
Together, we had the opportunity to interact with thousands of individuals, making this event both meaningful and impactful.

Remember to keep vents and flues clear during and after the big storm. If snowdrifts or piles of shoveled snow block exhaust vents outside, can rise to deadly levels inside. We can't see, smell, or taste this silent killer, so be sure you have working alarms on every level of your home: https://ow.ly/vaIF50UVzue
