The Greensboro Fire Department has expanded its public education efforts in the last five years to better serve the citizens of Greensboro. The Fire Department has employed a full-time clown (and we mean that in the nicest way) named Flame, who handles all elementary school education needs. Flame also has her sidekick, who accepts dog treats as payment. Ember, the dalmatian fire dog, does many tricks to help Flame teach children about fire safety. Watch for Flame and Ember at GCM.

Do you know the correct way to wear a helmet?
 
Wear the helmet flat atop your head, not tilted back at an angle!
 
Make sure the helmet fits snugly and does not obstruct your field of vision. Make
sure the chin strap fits securely and that the buckle stays fastened.
