Posted by at 7 October, 2009, 10:35 am

October 4-10, 2009 is Fire Prevention Week. Emergency response agencies should combine traditional fire prevention week activities – station tours, school visits, press releases, and public service announcements with social media efforts. This screencast showcases the efforts by Montgomery County Fire Rescue Service to use social media tools – blogger, Facebook, and Twitter – to talk about Fire Prevention and to bring attention to its traditional fire prevention week activities.
