Our topic this month will be fire prevention and safety.  A representative
from the Fairfax City Fire Marshal's office will talk to us about dealing
with a fire emergency, and tips for what you can do now to help you be
prepared in case of a fire.  We will also learn about the Fairfax City Fire
Department's strategic plan for handling emergencies when a service dog is
involved.  Even if you think you have heard all about fire safety and there
is nothing more to learn, please reconsider  and plan to join us.  We can
never be fully prepared for an emergency, but the more we are exposed to
what we need to do, the more prepared we will be.
