Kerrville Fire Department hosting “Safe Kids” car demonstration

The Kerrville Fire Department will be joining forces with other area agencies this week in hosting “Safe Kids” car demonstrations, created to show how quickly automobiles can heat up during summer conditions. A digital thermometer will be used to compare the outside ambient air temperature versus the temperature inside a locked car with windows rolled up.

The demonstrations will take place from 12 noon to 1 p.m. at the following locations:

Tuesday, July 20 – Kerr County Courthouse, 700 Main Street

Wednesday, July 21 – H-E-B, 300 Main Street

Thursday, July 22 – Walmart, 1216 Junction Highway

Friday, July 23 – Home Depot, 1789 Sidney Baker Street

Saturday, July 24 – Louise Hays Park, (near the water park), 202 Thompson Drive

Vehicles will be staged at each location from 11:00 a.m. to 4 p.m. The Kerrville Fire Dept. encourages citizens to come see this important and potentially life-saving demonstration.
