We're continuing on with our Community Helper unit and this week we had a visit from the Big Bend-Vernon Volunteer Fire Department.  They showed us all the different tools and hoses on their trucks and we got to see a fire fighter suit up.  They sure do wear a lot of gear!  Our classes also talked about fire safety in the home, particularly in the kitchen.  There are so many things to be careful of!

Next week, watch for your scheduled conference slip to come home.  If there is a conflict with your date/time, please let me know right away.

Have an excellent long weekend!!
