It’s Fire Prevention Week!

October 5 – 11, 2025

Even though every day is about fire prevention for us, this week is nationally recognized as #FirePreventionWeek! 🚒🔥🚨👩‍🚒

This year, the National Fire Protection Association (NFPA)’s theme focuses on rechargeable battery safety. Over the past 2 years, Frederick County has seen 10 incidents involving lithium-ion batteries.

These batteries power many of the devices we use every day, including smartphones, tablets, laptops, power tools, headphones, e-bikes, and even toys. While these batteries are efficient, they can overheat, catch fire, or explode if damaged or misused. Knowing how to safely buy, use, and dispose of rechargeable batteries is more important than ever.

Visit the Frederick County Fire and Rescue website to stay informed of educational events around the county.
