Fire Prevention

	Bulverde Area Vol Fire Department Our lives and the lives of our "customers" depend on our actions as a community!

WANT TO HAVE US COME TEACH YOUR STUDENTS FIRE PREVENTION AND SAFETY?

For the school or daycare facility

If you would like to have your students or children in your school/daycare to be prepared in case of a fire or even to get them informed of fire prevention, we are here to help.

We don't just put out fires and come to your aid in time of crisis...we proactively teach fire prevention and safety so that if a day comes where one of your children/students are in a situation where they might be in danger because of a fire or in a situation where someone might start a fire we want them to be aware of what they need to do or who to call.

This program can help save lives.

There is NO cost to you or your school/daycare for this program.

So call us today to schedule your demo! We look forward to seeing you and meeting your students!

How do we schedule a Fire Prevention demo for our school? There are 2 simple steps!

First - select a couple of dates that your classes would be available for the demo. The reason you need to select a couple of dates is so that if your first choice is taken we have a second to check.

Second - Call Lt. Ruben Smith and schedule the demo.
(830) 980-3883
or you may send him an email - rrsmith@gvtc.com
If you send an email please request that he send you a response, and if you don't hear from him, please call.

How much time is required for a demo?

The time depends on a couple of different factors, such as:

Number of students
Age of students
Number of questions

With the above factors, it can be as little as an hour or as long as a half day.

Are we required to provide any materials?

No. The trainers will bring all necessary training items, as well as any type of take-aways for the children.

What do you do during the demo?

Again this is going to depend on certain factors, such as:

Number of students
Age of students

Each demo will be slightly different, because we make them age appropriate.

Demos range from showing students trucks all the way to safety evacuation plans for homes.

If you have questions as to what your group would be learning, please contact Lt. Ruben Smith and he will be happy to answer any questions you may have.
