Children Meet Hero Firefighters at Wylam Library Firefighters Rock Program
by Roy L. Williams, Public Relations Director at the Birmingham Public Library
Birmingham’s police and firefighters are heroes on the front lines, protecting citizens in their time of need. Whether it’s in our neighborhoods putting out a fire or helping rescue drivers and their passengers from wrecked vehicles, firefighters put their lives on the line for us, often on a daily basis.
On Tuesday, June 26, Wylam Branch Library hosted Firefighters Rock, a Birmingham Public Library Summer Learning children’s program. During the event, Wylam’s patrons—both young and old—got a chance to meet community helpers from Birmingham fire stations and learn about fire safety. The children even toured a Birmingham fire truck, heard its sirens wail, and watched its lights flash.
Firefighters Rock is among over 400 Summer Learning programs for kids, teens, and adults taking place at BPL’s 19 library locations in June and July.
