This past Saturday, the Casa Grande Fire Department (CGFD) conducted its annual Smoke Alarm Installation Walk. The event was organized by CGFD’s Prevention Division and focused on enhancing fire safety in the community.

Volunteers, including students from CAVIT (Central Arizona Valley Institute of Technology), visited Safari Mobile Home Park as part of the initiative. During their efforts, they reached 30 homes and installed a total of 82 smoke alarms.
