MINI — MUSTER
A Child Centered Safety Program
Mini-Muster is an important program in child fire safety founded by Debbie Smith
of the Northwest Fire Department, Tucson, Arizona. The Tucson muster was developed
in association with various Tucson, Arizona, Schools.
Mini-Muster was adopted by the Historical Society of Palm Desert, California, as
�n ed�cational outreach related to both the historic building occupied by Society offices
and to Society collections. It was approved for third grade curriculum by the D�sert
Sands Unified School District in 1993. The event is coordinated by the Historical
Society of Palm Desert, operated by personnel of Fire Station Number 33, Riverside
County Fire Department, and in association with the Cities of Indian Wells and Palm
Desert. Site presentation is limited by volunteer time, money, and protection of program
quality.
Every September, Indian Wells and Palm Desert proclaim Fire Prevention and
P,��ni-Muster month for October. Each school is given student preparation packets that
contain subject specific materials including fire safety vocabulary, maste� coforing
sheets, songs, and a film. Some teaching aids were provided by State Farm Insurance.
In October, all third grade children in Carter, Ford, Lincoln, Reagan, and Washington
elementary schools participate in a full day of hands-on field exercises centered upon
fire prevention and personal and family safety.
Fire Station #33 built and maintains the small house and three dimensional,
folding, wooden sets used in the field school. Up to fourteen outdoor areas are staged
to mimic the actual training given professional fire fighters. The action, scaled to child
size and ability, includes escape from a smoke-filled room while blindfolded, a hose
drag, bucket brigade, finding a way through a dark house and other team exercises
timed to create the sense of emergency that would occur were the situation real.
Station #33 schedules fire fighters to operate each station.
Between team events other activities include safety briefings, and question and
answer periods by fire fighters. There are displays, staffed by personnel, of paramedic
equipment and the hazardous materials accident response vehicles. Fire truck displays
include modern and historic locaf fire engines. Cold drinks are served all day.
Child Centered, Cont'd., Page 2
When the field activities have ended and the equipment is stowed away, the fire
fighters and society volunteers enjoy a special lunch prepared by parents of the
students. As a grand ending to this very special day, a general assembly is held. The
school is presented with a participation award, accepted by the principal. Then the
room in darkened and a firefighter, completely equipped, crawls into the room among
the children, breathing with the oxygen apparatus carried on the back that would be
used during the real fire rescue. The child would see and hear this unfamiliar and
strange being if they were to be rescued. The students are told to listen quietly so they
will remember the sound and the appearance and welcome, rather than fear, the �re
fighter. Finally, each child is presented a signed Certificate of Completion of Fire Safety
Training. Fire fighters, with their friends Sparky and Smokey, deliver special souvenirs
and shake the hand of every child as they leave the assembly.
The exciting and demanding days of Mini-Muster are followed later in the morth
with city award ceremonies, hosted by the mayor, to honor the several hundred people
who give hours or weeks of time to Mini-Muster and to recognize exceptional student
artwork that describes the Mini-Muster experience.
Last year's Mini-Muster was another outstanding success. The winning program
received excellent coverage in all local newspapers and television and continues to
enjoy the full support of teachers, children, parents, school district, fire department,
historical society, the cities of Palm Desert and Indian Wells, and business contributors.
The Historical Society of Palm Desert is proud of the non-profit, public, and private
agencies that have made Mini-Muster available to our children. Fire safety, educational,
cultural, and business leaders have carried out another year of training that has
prepared thousands of third graders in personal safety. This is a lasting learning
experience that children need. It is wonderful that the children spell Mini-Muster as
"F-U-N."
