Annual Event on the First Saturday of October

Join us at the annual Fire Station Open House on Saturday, October 4, from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. at Poudre Fire Authority Station 3 next to Spring Park! 

This year’s event helps kick off Fire Prevention Month with fire engine tours, station tours, and meet-and-greet opportunities with your local firefighters. 

Learn about fire prevention in your home and participate in fun, kid-friendly activities – there is something for everyone. 

There will be trivia, SWAG, drawings and good old community camaraderie—plus, we’ll share important safety info to help keep your home fire-ready!

This year’s Fire Prevention Week theme, “Charge into Fire Safety: Lithium-Ion Batteries in Your Home,” highlights the risks associated with everyday items like smartphones, laptops, power tools, and other rechargeable electronics. 

Learn how to Buy, Charge, and Recycle Safely – the three main tips emphasized by the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA).

1. BUY. Purchase only tested products
2. CHARGE. Charge devices properly using the right cables on hard surfaces and don’t overcharge
3. RECYCLE. Dispose of batteries at certified recycling centers.
