'Educate And Vaccinate' Events To Be Hosted By Sandy Springs Fire

SANDY SPRINGS, GA — The Sandy Springs Fire Department will host a series of “Educate and Vaccinate” community events over the next three months to answer questions and share information on COVID-19 and fire safety.

The Sandy Springs Police Department will join the Fire Department at the events and will be cooking hot dogs, offering educational safety materials and free COVID-19 vaccines. The events will be family-friendly, with fire prevention items and information for children available as well.

“This is a great way for the community to meet and engage with our tremendous fire and police departments,” Mayor Rusty Paul said. “Our team will also be administering free COVID-19 vaccines, as that’s the first line of defense in keeping residents healthy and moving past the pandemic. We encourage everyone to come out, have a bite to eat and get vaccinated.”

The events are scheduled to take place from 10:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. at the following locations:

• Oct. 2: Highland Park, 100 Highland Park Trail, and Lake Placid Apartments, 5801 Kingsport Drive
