PRESS RELEASE: MAJ Foundation Teams Up With BCFD for Annual Thrill Show









Its largest public education event of the year, the BCFD Thrill Show will host a variety of up-close demonstrations and fun activities geared at educating people of all ages on the importance of fire safety. Several controlled burns will be held, including a car fire, large tanker fire and a Christmas tree fire in a burn cell. Activities for children will include carnival rides, craft tables, safety skill booths and a Junior Fire Chief contest. Additionally, the BCFD will host the “Firefighter Combat Challenge,” an entertaining event which tests firefighter contestants’ athletic and firefighting skills. Attendance is expected to be as high as 2,500.

Sponsorship for this year’s Thrill Show was provided through the generous support of MAJ Foundation donors, who contributed more than $5,000 for the event. Additionally, at least 20 volunteers will also provide on-site assistance. This is the fourth year the MAJ Foundation has sponsored the BCFD Thrill Show.

WHEN: This Saturday, October 6 from 11:00 am – 4:00 pm.
