Be prepared this winter. Assemble a 72-hour emergency kit which should include non-perishable food, water, a first aid kit, and more. Make sure your emergency kit accounts for every household member and their individual needs. Be proactive, not reactive. https://t.co/MFMtXblbRZ

#HalloweenFireSafetyTip: Remind children of pedestrian safety & rules of the road. Trick or treating should be made along one side of the street first and then the other, and that it's best to cross the street only at intersections or crosswalks.

#HalloweenFireSafetyTip: Use battery-operated candles in pumpkins. If using real candles, choose tea lights for outdoors only and light them with long matches or a utility lighter.

#HalloweenFireSafetyTip Make-up and face paint are better than wearing masks which can restrict breathing and/or vision. Provide children with flashlights to carry for lighting or glow sticks as part of their costume.

Reminder that Springwater is under a total fire ban due to very dry conditions. Yesterday crews attended a grass fire and got it stopped before it got into the forest area. Today crews attended a field fire, which was started from a vehicle’s hot exhaust, spreading quickly.
