Quad-City fire marshals gathered recently
to record a video promoting their departments' smoke alarm installation programs.
The American Red Cross of the Quad-Cities is holding a Sound the Alarm Installation Appointment Blitz on Wednesday from 5:30 a.m. to 7 p.m.
Anyone who does not have working smoke alarms, is unable to check their smoke alarms, or whose smoke alarms were installed more than five years ago, is urged to call 309-743-2166 on Wednesday to make an appointment to have free smoke alarms installed.
Volunteers will install the free smoke alarms on Saturday, April 28 in Scott, Muscatine, Rock Island, Henry and Mercer counties.
