The Hopkinton Fire Department will open their station to the public on Sunday, October 14 th for
their Annual Open House. The event at Fire Headquarters will be from 11am to 2pm. Residents
and children will have the opportunity to view demonstrations, learn about fire safety, and tour
the station. Refreshments will be provided and Sparky the Fire dog is expected to make an
appearance.
The Open House provides an opportunity for firefighters to focus on the educational theme of
Fire Prevention week. This year’s theme is “Look. Listen. Learn. Be aware – fire can happen
anywhere.” Through three simple calls-to-action, this year’s theme identifies basic but essential
ways people can reduce their risk to fire and be prepared in the event of one. Here’s this year’s
key campaign messages:
 Look for places fire can start
 Listen for the sound of the smoke alarm
 Learn two ways out of each room
In support of Fire Prevention Week, “Look. Listen. Learn. Be aware – fire can happen
anywhere.” works to remind the public that fires can and do still happen – at home, as well as
other locations - and that there are basic but vitally important steps people can take to remain
safe. Please join the Hopkinton Fire Department for a fun filled Open House.
