Please mark your calendars for Saturday February 13, 2010
Our meeting will be a CEP (Continuing Education Program) on Fire Safety and Carbon Monoxide Poisoning Prevention.
It will be held at the Libertyville North Fire Station 1551 N. Milwaukee Ave Libertyville, Illinois
Please arrive promptly at 1:30 pm.
The meeting will end at 4 PM.
Be sure to check for driving instructions prior to leaving your home. The fire station is on Milwaukee Ave across from Adler Park Pool.
There is a assignment that you need to complete prior to the meeting. You need to prepare a fire escape floor plan of your host family’s home. I recommend that you sit down with your host family and put the plan together. On this plan you need to identify potential escape routes in case of a fire. You will also need to note on the plan where fire extinguishers, smoke detectors and carbon monoxide detectors are location. In addition you should designate on the plan a place outside the house where all family members should meet in case of a fire.
The fire escape plans will be reviewed by the Libertyville Fire Department personnel who are giving the presentation. They will select the best au pair fire escape plan and that person will receive a $25 gift certificate.
