CHFD wins safety award

Posted on March 23, 2011 by Staff

The Chapel Hill Fire Department received the Most Creative Safe Kids Activity Award at the Safe Kids North Carolina Annual Meeting. The department was nominated for the award for its public-safety education center, “The Fire Place.”

The Fire Place hosted multiple presentations of the department’s award-winning fire-safety puppet show, “Johnnie Joins the Fire Department.” The Fire Place is home to the historical display of the Chapel Hill Fire Department. Many interesting photographs and artifacts, including the town’s 1914 Model T fire truck, are on display for public viewing.

The Fire Place is open to the public Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays from 3 to 6 p.m.
