FIFTH ANNUAL PUBLIC SAFETY DAY FESTIVAL ANNOUNCED

Brentwood – In an effort to better connect the public with the city’s fire and emergency services, the Brentwood Fire and Rescue Department will hold its Fifth annual Public Safety Day festival on Saturday, October 10th. The free, family-friendly event will take place from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. in the Kroger parking lot of the Brentwood Place shopping center, 330 Franklin Road.

The festival will include children’s activities and static displays of fire, police, and EMS vehicles. Brentwood Fire and Rescue will also be offering free car seat checks. This year for the first time, the Tennessee Highway Patrol will exhibit their new “Teens and Trucks” driving simulator which includes six simulators loaded with steering wheels, pedals, and driving lessons. There are also plans to have a residential fire sprinkler exhibition and a live vehicle extrication demonstration featuring tools and equipment from the city’s newest fire engine.

Open house tours of each of Brentwood’s four fire stations will occur simultaneously with the Kroger parking lot events.
