Wilton Fire Department presented a fire safety seminar to au pairs from Wilton, Weston, Redding, Ridgefield, and Pound Ridge, N.Y.

The au pairs heard a discussion about kitchen fire safety, home exit drills, keeping young children safe from a fire, and escaping from a fire. They also received a tour of the firehouse and went home with brochures to share with their host families and children.

The event was organized by community counselors Margret Greene and Beverly Resnick.
