HURON – Hundreds of families can sleep a little easier thanks to a free smoke alarm installation program that’s now in its third year in Huron through the Red Cross and the Huron Fire Department.
“We’ve been doing this for three years,” said Charlotte Henley, the Community Volunteer Leader for the Huron area as a couple dozen volunteers and firefighters prepared to knock on doors in the southeast part of town.
“We’ve been very successful,” she said. “And I’m happy to say our staff often refer to Huron as a role model for the way we get things done.
“I think we all appreciate the fact that we have so many volunteers who show up, and we’re very, very grateful,” Henley said.
Volunteers had left hangers on doors a week ago on houses they returned to on Saturday to check to see if they had working smoke detectors and to install new ones.
