Fire Prevention Week is October 6-12, 2024!

Since 1922 Fire Prevention Week (FPW) has been observed across the country, creating awareness and educating communities on the dangers of fire. FPW is observed each year during the week of October 9th in commemoration of the Great Chicago Fire, which began on October 8, 1871, and caused devastating damage. This horrific conflagration killed more than 250 people, left 100,000 homeless, destroyed more than 17,400 structures, and burned more than 2,000 acres of land.

To kick off Fire Prevention Week, the Corona Fire Department is holding an Open House at Fire Stations 5 & 6 on Saturday, October 5, 2024, from 10am-2pm. We invite all of you to stop by Stations 5 & 6 to see our stations, check out our fire engine and trucks, and visit with our firefighters!

Fire Station 6 will also have special guests in attendance, as our firefighting goats will be there as well! Bring the kids by to say hi and pet the goats, all while learning how to keep you and your family safe from fire!

Fire Station 5 is located at 1200 Canyon Crest Dr and Fire Station 6 is located at 110 W. Upper Dr in Corona.

We hope to see you there!
