经过Frank E. Vaerewijck, “The Firehouse Foodie”
十月是防火月。这可能不是任何人的新闻，但是我们的信息如何传达给大众？每年10月，我们都会用塑料消防帽，着色书和凉爽的赠品装载卡车，然后前往这片巨大土地的学校。我们投入时间将我们的信息阐述给像海绵一样吸收它的年轻人。然后，在注意力范围减少之后，我们允许他们做我们最喜欢的事情，去卡车上玩！
Each visit is different and geared to the age group the information is intended for. We always cover the classics and old favorites, Stop Drop & Roll, call 911, and know your address, but with the older kids, we will talk about the science of fire and how important it is to stay in school. Engaging them to answer questions outside of the normal ones helps the information sink in. The giveaways tend to be items like activity books that we encourage them to take home and do with their family members.
我们是否要到达真正需要的人？离开校舍后，我们会忘记什么，或者信息改变了多少？我的部门每月至少每月至少一次进行社区外展活动，例如农贸市场。得知有多少成年人不确定您需要多久替换烟雾探测器中的电池或烟雾探测器本身需要更换的频率，真是令人惊讶。
没有多少成年人知道那里有10年的电池，或者强烈建议在房屋前面有一个安全的聚会场所，即使他们中的大多数人都有他们在工作中练习的会议地点和问责制要求。我们是要接触到我们真正需要的人，还是需要做更多的事情来通过我们的信息重新认识群众？得益于Facebook和其他社交媒体平台的出现，如果最终用户旨在看到它，则信息更容易获得。继续像往常一样向孩子传达信息；只需尝试寻找创新的方法，将该信息扩展到大众。现在“那将消防屋带回家！”

Frank E. Vaerewijck有激情的消防sp吗anned 20 years. He has been a volunteer and career firefighter and is currently a firefighter/EMT with Smithfield Volunteer Fire Department (yes, where the bacon comes from, THAT Smithfield). He has passed on his passion for the fire service through instruction and mentorship. That same passion he has for the fire service is shared with his love of food. In 2006, Vaerewyck won an Iron Chef-style competition sponsored by a radio station in Richmond, Virginia. That is where he also furthered his education by attending a Culinary Arts Program. As the Firehouse Foodie, he has been compiling recipes to be included in a cookbook that will give others the opportunity to see their hometown heroes not just as firefighters but as the firehouse chefs they truly are.
