Have a working smoke alarm? You may get free pizza!

To celebrate Fire Prevention Week, Domino’s Pizza and the Courtenay and Comox fire departments are once again partnering to reward residents who have working smoke alarms in their homes with free pizza.

On Friday, October 9, residents in Comox and Courtenay who live in single residential homes, duplexes or townhouses and call Domino’s Pizza between 5 p.m. and 9 p.m., may receive their delivery with help from Comox or Courtenay firefighters.

Residents can order from:
• Domino's Pizza, 1599 Cliffe Ave #12, Courtenay, 250-334-3333
• Domino's Pizza, 215 Port Augusta St, Comox, Comox Mall, 778-431-0222

Firefighters will arrive in a fire truck and, with the customer’s permission, inspect the household's smoke alarms to ensure they are working properly. Those with functioning smoke alarms will get their pizza for free. Households will be chosen at random and as resources are available.

If a smoke alarm requires new batteries, firefighters will replace them. For eligible residents without a working smoke alarm, firefighters may arrange a return visit to install a battery-powered smoke alarm at no cost.

Today, we remember.

On September 11, 2001, 343 firefighters made the ultimate sacrifice while serving others. Their courage, dedication, and selflessness continue to inspire firefighters around the world.

The 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb gives us an opportunity to honour those 343 individuals, one step at a time. Each step represents a name, a life, a family, and a story that must never be forgotten.

For us at Comox Fire Rescue, it is a privilege to take part in this meaningful event alongside fellow firefighters and first responders. We climb in remembrance, in solidarity, and with gratitude for those who ran toward danger when others were trying to escape.

We remember the 343. We honour their sacrifice. We will never forget.
