Kurious Kids Preschool had a visit with firefighter Kevin Raether to learn about fire safety on Wednesday. Firefighter Raether showed his gear and explained what the things were for. He talked about what to do if there was smoke; get down and crawl out, and checking the doors to see if they are hot. Finally, he showed some of the things on the fire truck and let the kids climb inside. Thank you Firefighter Raether for taking time out of your day to educate our kids.
