NATIONAL ACADEMY TRAINING

CAR SEAT INSTALLATION

We installed 97 car seats for second quarter in FY 2018. Thank you for letting us help you stay safe!

Each Morrisville Fire/Rescue Station is available Monday through Sun- day from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. to assist citizens with installing a car seat.

Engineer Chris Meeks, Engineer Chris Salter, Lieutenant Steve Edwards and Engineer Ben Oswald are all shown above at the National Fire Academy in Emmitsburg, MD. These officers had a two-day course that covered several types of classes in fire service related to safety and other topics.

Residents only need to come to the pedestrian entrance and ask for as- sistance. We ask that you do not block the vehicle entrance and exits with your vehicle when you visit the station.

If you ring the doorbell and we do not answer, it is because we are not at the station and are most likely on a call. In these situations, we encour- age you to visit us again at another time.

HONORING VETERANS On Friday, November 10, 2017, the Town collab- orated with Preston Pointe Retirement Commu- nity to host a Veteran’s Day recognition where veterans on duty from the Fire Department, the Police Department and veterans from Preston Pointe were honored for their service. The Morrisville Veterans Memorial Foundation Committee shared information about their fundraising efforts for the development of a memorial in Morrisville. Chief Jenkins, Morris- ville Fire/Rescue Department Color guard, Rescue 2 and Ladder 1 were all in attendance to celebrate and honor those who have fought for our country. We have the utmost gratitude and respect for each and every one of our veterans!

The Morrisville Veterans Memorial Foundation is considering two design concepts, one features pillars and the other features a wall, both shown above. The Foundation continues to raise funds for design and construction of a memorial. Additional information is available at www.morrisvilleveteransmemorial.org.
