In June 2002, the
St. Charles Fire Department sent personnel to a forty-hour child
safety seat installation class. To date we have seven certified
installers spread amongst our three shifts. In 2004, they installed
267 car seats. At least two of the seats were subsequently involved in
motor vehicle crashes, neither child was injured and the seats did not
move.
If you are a city
resident and wish to have a seat installed by one of our professional
staff, please contact the Fire Chief’s office at 949-3250 to schedule
an appointment.
The mission
of the St. Charles Fire Department is:
· Service without boundaries;
·
Compassion and Integrity in all that we do;
·
Courage to move forward.
