Fire Safety Fieldtrips

We are thankful that Lt Byrne of the Beaufort Fire Department sought to include homeschool students in their fire prevention and safety programs. With his assistance we have orchestrated two field trips for homeschoolers in the Beaufort area.

The first field trip is Saturday, January 24th 10 am for kids (elementary school) this program is focused on fire safety and surviving a fire.

The second fieldtrip is Saturday, January 31st 9:00 am for the adults (middle school and above) the focus is on preventing fires and how to keep our family safe and survival.

Lt. Byrne needs to know numbers so please RSVP to our email address chsb@embarqmail.com by Wednesday, January 21st. When you RSVP please indicate the number of adults, grade and age of your children and which date or dates you will attend. Again Lt. Byrne encourages as many families as possible to attend the programs; he and the staff have a great program with lots of great information. Please pass this information on to other homeschool families you know.

The location for each visit is the station right across from the county building 135 Ribaut Road. You can park in the back of the station. Go down Green St from Ribaut Rd, make the first right, coming from the opposite end of Green St. make the last left, Mt. Sinai Baptist Church is on the corner, turn there. After passing the church property, go through the gate and enter the station parking area. All families are invited to fellowship together at Pigeon Point Park after the January 24th field trip. Pack a lunch to bring along and we can meet, greet, eat and play for an hour or so. A get together for the middle and high school attendees on January 31st is in the works.
