Chula Vista Fire Department’s annual open house for Fire Prevention Day will be held from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturday, October 3. Features at this year’s event include live fire department demonstrations, fire equipment displays, and fire prevention exhibits. All of the activities will take place at Fire Station #4, located at 850 Paseo Ranchero in the Rancho del Rey neighborhood just north of East H Street.

“We invite members of our community to join us for this annual open house,” said Fire Marshal Justin Gipson. “In addition, we will give residents a first-hand look at some of our firefighting techniques and offer valuable fire prevention information.”

Firefighters, fire prevention personnel, and Fire Explorers will be participating in this special event. In addition, the event will include free blood pressure checks by A.M.R Ambulance Service and information booths from the Burn Institute, San Diego County Haz-Mat Unit, Citizens Emergency Response Team (CERT), and the Citizens Adversity Support Team (CAST), as well as free rides on the “Little Fire Truck.” Highlights for children will be the fire safety program in a specially designed “house”, and puppet shows demonstrating fire prevention and safety.

Chula Vista’s annual open house is scheduled during National Fire Prevention Week. This year’s campaign is entitled “Hear the Beep Where You Sleep – Every Bedroom Needs a Working Smoke Alarm!”
