Serving Up Fire Safety

Twenty-eight Hampton Bays students were recently named winners in the Hampton Bays Fire Department’s annual Fire Safety Poster/Essay contest. This year’s contest carried the theme “Serve Up Fire Safety in the Kitchen.”

In conjunction with the poster contest, students in grades K-5 received instruction in the prevention of burns and fires in their homes, while those in grades seven and eight wrote essays on kitchen fire safety.

Three contest winners were selected from each grade and awarded a $30 gift certificate.
