City of Sheridan Councilman Greg Luhman and City Fire Chief Gary Harnish made an appearance on Sheridan Media’s Public Pulse to talk a little about Fire Prevention Week.
Fire Prevention Week is a nationally observed week in the United States and Canada from Sunday to Saturday in which Oct. 9, falls. In the United States, the first Presidential Proclamation of the week was made in 1925 by Calvin Coolidge.
Chief Harnish said it is an excellent opportunity for the community to take a few moments and check the batteries and the placement of fire alarms throughout their residence.
