Prairie Township Firefighter Sam Edwards gives a hand to 4-year-old Asher Easterday exiting the EDITH (exit drills in the home) House. This was part of the annual Prairie Township Food Truck and Fire Prevention Festival held on Oct. 3. The EDITH House was borrowed from the Whitehall Fire Department and uses a smoke machine to simulate a smoke filled house. Firefighters were inside helping visitors understand procedures such as getting low, carefully touching door handles, and using a window when available.
