With October being National Fire Safety Month and residents preparing homes for the winter months, State Senator Hugh T. Farley (R,C,I - Schenectady) and the Tribes Hill Fire Department will co-host their annual Fire Safety Night on Wednesday, October 20th, from 6 to 8 p.m., at the fire department located on Mohawk Drive, Tribes Hill. All interested persons are welcome to attend. "Protecting our loved ones is the responsibility of every parent, neighbor and citizen," Senator Farley said. "That's why it is important to stay informed on fire safety and to take steps to protect yourself and your families." For more information, call Senator Farley's Amsterdam office at 843-2188. "This is a nice family event where kids and parents alike can learn more about fire safety and what a firefighter does in emergency situations. One of the local Boy Scout troops comes every year and uses the event as part of their curriculum. I look forward to seeing everyone there," Senator Farley said. "There is still time if anyone is interested in giving demonstrations, having a display table or participating in the Fire Safety Expo. You may call my District Office," Senator Farley said. "We are looking for experts on topics such as fire safety, chimney cleaning, and wood stove and pellet stove use."
