The Blacksburg Volunteer Fire Department presents their annual Fire Prevention Week Open House on Sunday, October 9, 2022 at Station #3.
The Annual Open House will kick off the start of Fire Prevention Week. This year’s theme for Fire Prevention Week is: "Fire Won't Wait, Plan Your Escape".
The open house is great for the kids! We’ll be offering tours of the fire trucks, light snacks, fire prevention items, the opportunity to use a real fire hose, and maybe even a visit from Sparky the Fire Dog!
In addition, the Blacksburg Volunteer Fire Department turns 100 years old. The department was founded by volunteer citizens of the town in 1922, with little more than their dedication and a single fire apparatus. A century later we are reflecting on all we’ve accomplished and where we came from. At the open house, you can view our oldest apparatus, Unit 1 (1941 Oren), and other historical items from our past. You can compare them to our latest equipment and gear to see the changes.
This event is open to the public and admission is free.
Blacksburg Volunteer Fire Department Station #3 is located at 407 Hubbard Street in Blacksburg, VA.
