Municipal Mini: Fire Prevention Week + OFD Open House
Fire Prevention Week 2025
From October 5-11, we’re sharing important safety tips with our community. This year’s theme is:Charge into Fire Safety: Lithium-Ion Batteries in Your Home.
Lithium-ion batteries power many of the things we use every day—phones, laptops, e-bikes, power tools, and more. While they’re reliable, they also need to be handled with care.
- BUY safely – Always purchase devices and batteries from reputable sources.
- CHARGE safely – Use the charger that came with your device, and never charge under your pillow or on your bed.
- RECYCLE safely – Don’t throw batteries in the trash. Take them to proper recycling locations.
Let’s work together to prevent fires and keep our Alberta communities safe.
Olds Fire Department Open House
Join us on Wednesday, October 8 from 6:30 PM to 8:30 PM at the Olds Fire Department (across from 5107 65 Avenue).
Lithium-ion batteries are part of our everyday lives—from cell phones and laptops to e-bikes and power tools. But with their convenience comes responsibility. Learn how to BUY, CHARGE, and RECYCLE safely to prevent fires in your home.
Bring the whole family and help us make fire safety a community priority!
