Boy wins fire prevention grand prize
More than 100 children in Snohomish County learned how to keep their families safe from fire by participating in the Snohomish County Fire Prevention Association Fire Prevention Month coloring Contest
Entrants submitted posters that highlighted the theme of “Preventing Home Fires”.
Grand Prize winner Joel Aaron of Lynnwood was rewarded with a T-shirt with a copy of his poster printed on the front, a pizza party and a personalized tour of his local fire station.
