LVFD and the Community Risk Reduction Division had the opportunity today to offer fire extinguisher training for the residents of Vintage Grove Senior Apartments. We appreciated the time discussing fire safety in the home, how to properly use a fire extinguisher, and most importantly to always make your safety a priority in any situation that could involve a home fire. Thank you to the staff at Vintage Grove for being gracious hosts! #lvfd #lavernefire #lavernefiredepartment #EmergencyPreparedness ... See MoreSee Less
