Every October, the Local 4349 teams up with the Rancho Santa Fe Fire Prevention team to go into the schools and teach about fire safety.  Each grade levels are taught different aspects of fire safety.  The youngest students learn about not playing with matches and lighters, stop drop and roll, and are shown what a firefighter looks like when they are dressed up in their turnouts, mask and breathing apparatus.  Our newest firefighter, Harry Lee, demonstrates that "It's just happy firefighter Harry inside all that gear and not to be afraid if he, or someone like him, was to enter their house during a fire and search for them."  If was fun to share and teach the students of Rancho Santa Fe's district and we would like to extend our appreciation to the schools that participated.
