Statesboro Firefighters and the American Red Cross will partner for a Neighborhood Smoke Alarm and Safety Blitz in the Whitesville Community on Saturday.
The focus will be on homes between East Parrish Street and Mathews Road along with other, nearby neighborhoods, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.
“As part of this initiative, Statesboro firefighters and Red Cross volunteers will go door to door to install free smoke alarms in the neighborhoods,” said Statesboro Fire Chief Tim Grams. “Additionally, firefighters will be able to inspect and test current smoke alarms, replace batteries as needed, and offer other home fire safety advice”
