The Caribbean Netherlands Fire Department BKCN handed out smoke detectors on Friday, June 4, to 10 winners of an online quiz about smoke detectors.

The quiz was part of the first theme of a BKCN prevention campaign to inform citizens in the Caribbean Netherlands about fire safety and self-reliance in emergency situations. The BKCN has offered to install smoke detectors at the winners’ homes. The second topic of the campaign concerns fire extinguishers at home. A competition is also part of this theme.
