Releases video on how kids can tie-dye their masks

Niagara County Legislature Chairwoman Becky Wydysh on Tuesday announced the Niagara County Department of Emergency Services will hold three drive-thru events on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday of this week at the Public Safety Training Facility in Lockport to distribute masks for children going back to school. The drive-thru giveaway will coincide with the release of a video from Emergency Services on how kids can tie-dye their masks.

“With school beginning, we want to continue to remind children of the importance of wearing masks and also try to make it fun with the video on how they can tie-dye their masks,” Wydysh said. “We always have had a strong response to our mask giveaways and this will be the first one targeted toward children as we will giveaway white masks with beads to do the tie-dying.”

The event runs from 2-5 p.m. Wednesday, and 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Thursday and Friday at the Niagara County Public Safety Training Facility, 5574 Niagara St. Ext., Lockport.

The video will be available at www.niagaracounty.com/fire as well as the Niagara County Emergency Services Facebook page.
