12/9 Fire Department Visits
REQUIRED WAIVER FORM FOR ALL SCOUTS
We will be breaking into 2 groups for visits to the Wilmington Fire Department on Monday, December 9. They plan to lead us through the bay and station to teach Scouts about the important job firefighters do, as well as highlight how what their typical day looks like, the tools/gear they use, and the importance of fire safety. Additionally, the fire fighters will make sure to highlight fire safety precautions to take when camping, campfires, and wildfires as well.
Groups A and B are listed below.
For safety reasons, the fire departments requires that every adult, student, and child attending the tour complete and submit a liability form. They will be collected at the start of the tour. Please find the form attached. Each participant must bring a signed form to the tour, or we may not be able to allow them to participate.
Additionally, please note that the tours are designed for children ages 5 and up due to safety concerns. The department asks that we ensure all participants meet this age requirement, and families that bring children younger than 5 may not be allowed to participate.

Parking for Station 8: When you pull into the station, there are a few spots by the front door, around the side, and in the back. As families are parking, please try not to block the bay doors and ensure there is enough room that the firetruck has space to enter and exit in case of emergency.
