MONROVIA, Ala. (WHNT) — If you’re looking for a family-friendly event this weekend, then head on over to Monrovia Volunteer Fire & Rescue.
On Saturday, June 14, MVFD is partnering with Calvary Baptist Church to host an open house. The free event runs from 11 a.m. until 3 p.m.
MVFD said its doors will be open and firefighters will be on hand to give tours, show equipment and answer any questions.
“We’ll do some demonstrations with our equipment, our fire prevention team will be here, we’ll have our inflatable smoke house so we can teach the kids some fire prevention type things,” said Public Information Officer Lieutenant James Filley. “You’ll get to touch a truck and see how we operate here.”
Calvary Baptist Church will be providing free lunch for all event attendees.
MVFD said it will be fun for the whole family.
“It’s an event geared for families so absolutely bring the kids out, bring the little ones out, you know a lot of our members will be here with their kids so it will be a whole family thing” Filley said.
“We’ll have some burgers and hot dogs and that kind of stuff, it’ll be a good time,” he added.
The event is happening at Monrovia Volunteer Fire & Rescue Station 1 at 345 Mt. Zion Rd, Madison, AL 35757.
