PHOTOS: Whitefish fire celebrates Fire Prevention Week
The Whitefish Fire Department celebrated Fire Prevention Week with an open house last Sunday. Attendees visited with first responders, including Whitefish police and firefighters, the Flathead County Sheriff’s Office, Search and Rescue, and crews from the ALERT helicopter.
The Northwest Montana Regional SWAT team was on hand, as well, and Deputy Pat McGauley and his partner, K9 Audie, treated the crowd to a bite demonstration.
There were smiles all around as families viewed the specialized equipment used in emergency responses, took tours of the fire and police stations and enjoyed free hot dogs.
