Perth Amboy, NJ – The Perth Amboy Fire Department will open its doors to the community next Friday with its annual Fire Prevention Week Open House at Fire Headquarters, offering families a chance to meet firefighters, tour fire trucks, and learn about home safety.
The event takes place October 10 from 6 to 9 p.m. at 375 New Brunswick Avenue. Activities include demonstrations, equipment displays, giveaways, and a visit from Sparky the Fire Dog, the department’s fire safety mascot.
