Tamaqua Fire Prevention Month

Students at the Tamaqua Elementary and St. Jerome’s Regional Schools in Tamaqua learned the basics of fire prevention and safety during National Fire Prevention Month, thanks to volunteers from all four of Tamaqua’s fire companies. Students, including these kindergarten and kindergarten-plus students at Tamaqua Elementary School, learn the proper way to put out a grease fire on the stove. KATHY KUNKEL/TIMES NEWS
