The annual fire prevention week returns across the country next week and local detachments are getting ready to spread the word.<\/p>\n
Terriann Munroe Miller, one of the organizers of the Liverpool events says fire prevention week is an important way to remind people to be vigil about fire safety.<\/p>\n
She adds simply changing your smoke detector\u2019s battery and making sure electrical outlets are not overloaded can go a long way to prevent fires.<\/p>\n
On Monday Oct. 8 the Grand street parade gets underway at 6:30 pm, starting at South Queens Middle School, traveling to Union Street down to Main Street, crossing Market to Henry Hensey Dr. and finishing at the Fire hall.<\/p>\n
After the parade is the ever popular Little Miss and Master pageant, which takes place at the fire hall.<\/p>\n
