ASHLAND CITY FIRE DEPARTMENT
SMOKE DETECTOR PROGRAM
Local elementary schools participated in the fourth year of the Firefighters 1st TEAM program “Pennies for Prevention”. Each participating school competes to raise the most money in pennies, nickels, dimes, and quarters to purchase smoke alarms for low-income individuals or families. The top class at each school is treated to a VIP fieldtrip to the fire station and a pizza lunch with the firefighters, pizza being donated by Dor-Lo’s Pizza. The second place class, or “Best Effort” class has firefighters bring pizza to them for lunch in their classrooms. The participating elementary schools raised $3,500.00 through the “Pennies for Prevention” campaign in 2009 to purchase smoke alarms.
