Firefighter 4-H Career Day
November 11, 2024
Throughout the year, guest speakers visit the 4-H’ers to talk about career choices. The latest guest speaker came with a couple of visual aids – a fire truck and an ambulance. The Fremont Fire Department came to visit during Fire Prevention Week.
Last year, 4 of the 4-H’ers were strongly considering firefighting as a career. This year there was only one, but two others would like to be volunteer firefighters. They are from smaller communities that rely on volunteers to fight fires.
Our guest speaker had some great fire prevention tips along with his career pitch. It was a productive visit.

Help Us Provide Welcome Kits!
When new children arrive at the home, often they come with very little in the way of basic items that they need to settle in to our community and feel welcome.
We have created a Welcome Kit that each child is given upon arrival that consists of a duffle bag filled with those basic items they need to get off to a good start.
