On October 3, the Whitefield Fire Department had over 60 special visitors. Preschoolers from the Whitefield Child Development Center visited the station to learn about fire safety. Firefighters dressed in full gear, taught the children how to stop, drop and roll, and let them “put out a fire” with the fire extinguisher.
