Campus Firewatch to team with Firehouse.com to produce monthly series of Podcasts focusing on campus fire safety

Partnership will provide invaluable information to the half-million visitors to Radio@Firehouse.com each month

BELCHERTOWN, Mass.  February 22, 2007— Campus Firewatch (www.campus-firewatch.com) and Radio@Firehouse.com (www.radiofirehouse.com) are joining together to produce a monthly Podcast focusing on campus fire safety.  This series of online radio shows will feature experts from across the country and around the world to discuss issues and practical suggestions that can be used by fire fighters in their own communities.

“This partnership will help us to reach a tremendous audience of first responders that has to deal with the complex issues of
campus fire safety every day,” said Ed Comeau, publisher of Campus Firewatch.  “Over 100 people have died in campus-related
fires since January 2000, with many, if not all, of them preventable.  Even more tragically, close to half of these deaths have
occurred in catastrophic, multiple-fatality fires that have killed three or more people.   By using the power of the Internet,
we can help fire fighters and their departments by sharing information, ideas, tactics and strategies that communities are using successfully to fight this problem.”

Campus Firewatch is the nation’s only electronic newsletter focusing on campus fire safety and a leader in the field.  In
publication since 2000, its publisher, Ed Comeau, is the former founding director of the Center for Campus Fire Safety
and former chief fire investigator for the National Fire Protection Association.

Firehouse.com is a premier source of information for the nation’s fire-rescue personnel with over 550,000 visitors each
month and over 140,000 registered forum users.  Radio@Firehouse.com hosts podcasts featuring leaders in the field
of fire fighting and fire safety that are downloaded or listened to online by thousands of visitors each month.

 

Campus Firewatch is a monthly, electronic newsletter focusing on the complex issues of campus fire safety.  More information can be found at www.campus-firewatch.com.
