Huge thanks to the Sandy Spring Volunteer Fire Dept (SSVFD) for an amazing Open House today! 🚒🔥 Grateful for our volunteers who keep our community safe year-round. @mcfrsPIO @HHFireProds @ArmisteadIsaac @mcfrs #mcfrs @MoCoFireWire @Lawzfirephotos @command11b
More than 10,000 vehicle occupants killed in crashes were not wearing seat belts in 2023. Buckling up only takes a second — and it could save your life!
This age group is often found to be using the wrong type of restraint for their age and size. ⬇️ Parents — remind yourselves that moving your child into a booster seat or seat belt too soon can increase the risk or injury or death! ⚠️🧒 NHTSA.gov/TheRightSeat
Great day at Sandy Spring VFD Open House! Most popular question for the @mcfrs CRR car seat safety team? When can I turn my baby’s car seat forward facing? Keep them rear facing for as long as possible and at least until 2yo. Infants arrive with big heads and weak neck muscles.
A big a shoutout to the preschoolers at the Little Hands Preschool for this incredible thank you note! 👏 You made our day @mcfrs 🚒❤️ #FDAppreciation #FutureFirefighters
Beep! Beep! Preschoolers (and the awesome teachers!) at the Little Hands Preschool got to take the driver’s seat today! 🚒❤️ @mcfrs Fire Station 13 in Damascus had a great time teaching fire safety, giving tours of the fire truck…and having the best time. #CommunityConnections
