Severn's Junior Fire Fit Challenge engages local youth in fire safety
The Junior Fire Fit Challenge features an obstacle course for kids aged 5 to 9 that shows them what it would be like to be a firefighter.
The fun, hands-on challenge is designed to:
- challenge the participants both physically and mentally
- encourage integrity and perseverance
- build self-confidence
- educate youth about fire prevention and fire safety
Each junior firefighter will team up with a Severn firefighter to complete the course. The firefighter will assist the child and explain and demonstrate each activity. The junior firefighter will dress in a bunker coat and mock air pack for the challenge.
Date and location
The Junior Fire Fit Challenge will take place at the Coldwater Fall Fair on Saturday, September 28 from 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. The fair is held at the Coldwater Fairgrounds, 11 Michael Anne Drive.
