Don’t forget to RSVP for the Fire Safety Day!

Join the 

Bellevue Fire Department

Autism Society of Nebraska - Omaha Support Group

The Ollie Webb Center

and the

Omaha Down Syndrome Parent Network

for a Fire Safety Day for all families with special needs!

 

3rd Annual Fire Safety Day sponsored by the Bellevue Volunteer Fire Department

Saturday, August 7th from 1:00pm - 4:00 pm

Come see a rollover car demo, friendly firefighter in full equipment, learn about 911, seat belt safety, and even some basics about first aid.  Come visit the smoke trailer and have a supervised practice crawling out of the smoke trailer window to safety!  Another huge thrill will be taking a ride on a fire engine and even hold your own fire hose to squirt out a pretend fire. 

This event is built around our community and our special sensory needs.  There will not be any sirens used and the staff will follow your child’s lead.  This is a perfect opportunity for those kids who might be fearful of the firetrucks to come and learn that the fireman is their friend. 

RSVP is required.  You can register online HERE or call Shawn Neff at (402)861-1947 to register.
