Fire Prevention Week brings mock accident to Muskoday
During National Fire Prevention week, the Muskoday First Nation fire department is busy raising awareness around the community.
A mock accident scene was set up in front of the Muskoday Community School, where students could witness a victim extraction which allowed the department’s rookies to get some practise.
“We thought we’d come and do a demonstration to show the kids how the jaws (of life) work, and what we’d have to do to get a victim out,” Randy Bair said.
Bair, the captain of the Muskoday Fire Department, said his department spent prevention week running drills throughout the community.
