There were 911 operators on hand to talk to children about the proper steps to take when calling 911, such as remaining calm, how to answer operators questions and not to hang up in the middle of the call.

Guests at the Open House received an assortment of trinkets, such as, pencils, book marks, travel band-aids, coins and more. The firefighters provided important emergency literature and Tot Finder stickers for visitors.
