The special week kicked off locally this past Saturday. The El Centro Fire Department held their annual Open House at their station 3 on Waterman Avenue. The theme this year is Not Every Hero Wears A Cape. Plan and Practice your Escape. The day emphasized families organizing an escape plan from their homes in case of emergency. There were also tours of the Fire Station, a Kids Safety House, CPR training, static displays, rescue demonstrations, Sparky the Fire Dog and more.
