Each year, the Fort Washington Fire Company visits each of the public and parochial schools in Upper Dublin Township, presenting fire safety / fire prevention programs. In conjunction with our visits, we ask that all of these children participate in our coloring pages or poster contests (depends on age). The contests are distributed to the schools in late August, prior to the beginning of the school year, and collected in mid-September. All entries that we receive are judged, with first, second, and third place winners selected in each grade for each school. During our school visits, all winning entries are returned to the student who submitted the winning entry, along with trophies and medals (depending on place that the entry finished) that are presented to each winner.

If you have any questions or comments regarding our school programs, please contact the Fire Prevention Committee by phone at (215) 646-2555, press option #5, or by E-mail at FirePrevention@fwfc.org.
