MEMORANDUM

Posted:	September 12, 2018 02:38 PM
From:	Representative Neal P. Goodman
To:	All House members
Subject:	October as Pennsylvania Fire Prevention Month and October 7-13, 2018, as National Fire Prevention Week

In the near future, I will introduce a resolution designating October as "Pennsylvania Fire Prevention Month" and observing the week of October 7-13, 2018, as "National Fire Prevention Week." Each year since 1922, Fire Prevention Week is observed across the nation to remind people of fire dangers in their homes and communities, as well as to educate the public about simple fire prevention steps to make everyone safer. Pennsylvania Fire Prevention Month is an opportunity to recognize the efforts of all firefighters, fire service agencies, and other first responders in preventing and combating fire dangers. The theme of Fire Prevention Week 2018 is “Look. Listen. Learn. Be aware – fire can happen anywhere.” This year’s theme identifies basic, yet essential, ways people can reduce their risk to fire and be prepared in the event of one: look for places fire can start; listen for the sound of the smoke alarm; and learn two ways out of each room.
