Free Smoke Detectors for Senior and Low-Income Rural West Roane Residents: Saturday 9AM-1PMSubmitted by onetahiti on September 1, 2010 - 3:53pm.
West Roane County Volunteer Fire department (Link...) will be handing out free 10-year smoke alarms at Station #1 at 1303 Pumphouse Road, Rockwood, Tennessee, from 9 AM to 1 PM on Saturdays starting September 4. A grant from FEMA is providing 538 smoke detectors. Volunteers from West Roane VFD wrote the grant application that enabled this giveaway. Households in the West Roane service area--outside Rockwood city limits--are eligible. See this map of the service area: Link.... Look inside the dashed red lines but outside the golden area of Rockwood proper. Residents will be given detectors on a first-come, first served basis. Preference will be given to low-income households. Up to two detectors per household are allowed. Correct placement of smoke detectors is very important. Residents who want help with installation of the detectors can schedule an appointment for West Roane VFD volunteers to properly install the devices. This giveaway will be repeated every Saturday until the detectors are all passed out. For more information, call 865-354-8201. -- OneTahiti

Please let your neighbors know about this opportunity for excellent free alarms.
The Saturday giveaways will only continue while volunteers continue to come forth to staff the station Saturday mornings.
If you can't make it to the station, call. It is possible volunteers can arrange for the alarms to be brought to you.
