DIPOLOG CITY, Mar 17 (PIA) - Around 300 children aged 4 to 16 year's old learn fire safety tips while participating at ‘Berong’s Fire Camp’ that the Bureau of Fire Protection (BFP) conducted here at a local mall.
FO3 Mark Jefferson S. Canggas said that the camp is an activity purposely for children and the youth to learn fire safety including connecting fire hose, conduct cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), knot-tying, use of fire extinguisher, fire escape and rappelling.
In his message, City Mayor Darel Dexter Uy lauded the initiatives of BFP with F/SINP Edselle E. Manogura, acting city fire marshall, for conducting the activity that capacitates children to respond to fire incidents.
He expressed his gratitude to the parents and children for showing their support to the activity, including all stakeholders for the successful conduct of the program.
Berong’s Fire Camp is anchored on the tagline, “Sa pag-iwas sa sunog, hindi ka nag-iisa,” which is also simultaneously conducted all over the country.
The word “Berong” was taken from the BFP icon called “Berong Bombero”. (RVC/EDT/PIA-Zamboanga del Norte/Lenie S. Dadan-OJT)
