Poplar Bluff Domino's, located at 2140 N. Westwood Blvd., and the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) are teaming up with Poplar Bluff Fire Department to promote fire safety during Fire Prevention Week (Oct. 8-14). On Oct. 10 from 4-8 p.m., anyone who orders a Domino's pizza may be randomly selected and surprised at the door when their pizza arrives aboard a fire engine. If the smoke alarms in the home are working, the pizza is free. If the smoke alarms are not working, the firefighters will install fully functioning alarms or replace the batteries.
"Fire safety is extremely important," said David Bumpus, Poplar Bluff Domino's franchise owner. "We're excited to partner with the NFPA and Poplar Bluff Fire Department for a program that not only promotes the safety of our friends and neighbors, but rewards those who make fire safety a priority."
This year's Fire Prevention Week campaign theme is "Every Second Counts: Plan Two Ways Out."
"Today's home fires burn faster than ever," said Ralph Stucker, fire chief at Poplar Bluff Fire Department. "From the time the smoke alarm sounds, you may have less than two minutes to escape a home fire safely. That's why this year's campaign theme is so important - having an escape plan as well as fully functioning smoke alarms are essential to safely escaping a home fire."
