On September 15, an exciting event organized by the Regional Directorate for Fire Safety and Civil Protection (RDPBZN) in Burgas will take place in front of the "Sea Casino" Cultural Center. Between 5:00 PM and 7:00 PM, local firefighters will join forces with the popular character Fireman Steve to turn the topic of fire safety into an engaging children's adventure. This initiative is a key part of the official program marking Fire Safety Week and the professional holiday of firefighters, celebrated on September 14.
For the little ones, this is a unique chance to get a glimpse into the daily lives of those who battle flames. Fireman Steve, the iconic character from the puppet show of the same name by the State Puppet Theater – Burgas, will appear alongside real professionals to demonstrate that safety rules can be not only vital but also a lot of fun. The teams have prepared a series of demonstrations, games, and meetings, aiming to leave a lasting impression on the children through authentic experiences.
Before the official start of the event, another important ceremony is included in the program: from 4:30 PM to 5:00 PM, the winners of the regional stage of the national children's drawing contest, titled "I Saw the Disaster with My Own Eyes," will be officially awarded at the "The Snail" open-air stage.
During the meeting, every child will have the opportunity to learn more about the brave and noble profession of a firefighter by enjoying the following experiences:
- Climbing into a real fire truck and examining the equipment up close.
- Trying on authentic firefighter gear.
- Meeting the Burgas firefighters in person and learning details about their daily lives.
- Gaining valuable knowledge on how to prevent fires and how to react appropriately in case of danger.
