It has been reported by the National Fire Protection Agency that a fire department responds to a fire, somewhere in the nation, every 19 seconds. Unfortunately, this accounted for approximately 3,500 civilian deaths from countless fire related incidents. It is these statistics that compel departments everywhere to prevent fires and hazardous emergencies from occurring through safety surveys, research and knowledge. |

The department vigorously conducts ongoing programs of Public Education throughout the local community. Both public and private schools as well as commercial organizations within the town of Sherborn participate in yearly scheduled educational programs. These programs are funded by donations and the State S.A.F.E. grant issued to the department. In addition to this, the Sherborn Fire Department holds an annual Fire Prevention & Open House at our main station which allows area citizens to learn about on going programs and tour the facilities. With each passing year, we have much success and look forward to future activities and opportunities to meet those we serve. Please call for more information regarding future programs and on house dates. |
