People in Rockland County are getting a hands on lesson about fire safety.
As part of "Fire Awareness Month," Spring Valley firefighters are holding a number of fire drills like the one yesterday at Memorial Park.
The event included demonstrations on how to extinguish a simple kitchen fire, and a lesson about tools used by professional firefighters.
Residents tell News 12 the demonstrations were quite informative. "I learned a lot, the kids do learn a lot, and we do try to practice these things at home," says Spring Valley's Fiona Bouloute.
