THE SARASOTA COUNTY FIRE DEPARTMENT MARKS ITS 25TH
ANNIVERSARY WITH FIRE PREVENTION WEEK OPEN HOUSE
Staff Reports
The Sarasota County Fire Department marked
25 years of service to the community as it
held its annual Fire Prevention Week Open
House on Saturday, Oct. 5, at Fire Station No.
5, located at 400 N. Beneva Road in Sarasota.
This year's theme, Prevent Kitchen Fires,
was chosen by the National Fire Prevention
Association (NFPA) because two of every five
home fires begin in the kitchen when cooking
activities are under way, a news release notes.
