HOULTON, Maine — Houlton Domino’s, located at 127 North St., and the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) are teaming up with Houlton Fire Department to promote fire safety during Fire Prevention Week Oct. 8-14.
On Oct. 9, 11 and 12, from 5-7 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 Lee Prior, Houlton Domino’s franchise owner. “We’re excited to partner with the NFPA and Houlton 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 Milton Cone, chief of Houlton 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.”
Customers can call Domino’s in Houlton at 207-538-3131 to place their order and be eligible for the fire engine delivery.
