October is fire prevention month.  The Sherman Senior Center hosted the Sherman Volunteer Fire Department, the Fire Marshal’s Office, and the Resident Trooper’s Office as part of a safety presentation this week.  Firefighters discussed the importance of maintaining fire safety vigilance, including changing smoke and carbon monoxide detector batteries twice a year and ensuring they are in working order by pressing the test button.  The volunteers will provide assistance to any senior or disabled resident in Sherman, by appointment.
