The Maui Fire Department held its Fire Prevention Week Demonstration last Saturday at Kaunakakai Ball Park. This year’s theme was “Don’t Wait Check the Date,” reminding everyone to replace smoke alarms every 10 years.

Molokai firefighters educated the public on fire safety and put on a show for the community with rescue demonstrations and a live fire burn.

Captain Hanale Lindo was the MC of the event, while Smokey Bear and Sparky Dog also made appearances, and free fire safety giveaways were available for the keiki.
