Local kids attending the Fall Festival

tbe new Children's Fire Safety
House.
While local fire officials have used

festival marks the tie but of the bouse
paid for from donations collected in
Plymouth and Northville.
"We're passing the word of fire
safety," said Plymouth Fire Chief A1

Penniman. Hours for the safety dem-
onstrations are 4-10 p.m. Friday.
nooD-10 p.m. Saturday, and noon-6

While local governments contributed
$500 each to tbe cost of building

$17,00 raised to build it came from
businesses, civic organizations and
service clubs, Matthews said.

Firefighters conduct fire safety
drills under simulated fire conditions,
using non-toxic smoke and red
strobe lights to make i^oms glow
with a fire-like effect. The house is 8
feet wide, 26 feet long, 11 feet high
and weighs 10,000 pounds
Target age groups are third
through fifth grade elementary kids,
who learn there are two ways out of
every room, to crawl in smoke, and
to feel doors and open only when
they feel cool.
Fire fighters from Plymouth and
Northville donated time and labor to
build the house.
