The course, which i-uns for the four weeks of July gives kids 11-13 years of age the opportunity to see the inside workings of the fire depar- tment, first hand. "A lot of kids think that we just sit around ail day waiting for an alarm but this program gives some of them an opportunity to get inside knowledge on how we ac- tuaily run the station," said VanDoleweed. In the four weeks there are three two week classes con- sisting of about 40 kids giving a total of 160 kids the chance to get involved. The morning session i-uns from 9 a.m. until 11: 45 a.m. and the af ternoon session starts up again at 1: 15 and runs until 3:30 p.m. During that time the pupils are taught proper safety precautions for around the home and in case of an accident. They work with fire fighting equipment around the station learning it's proper usage. Ineluded in the program are films on safety which are shown at various times during the day. These in- clude topics like electrical safety, explosive materials and potential fire hazards.
