Summer celebrations are right around the corner, and the City of Fayetteville Fire Department encourages everyone to celebrate safely.

🎆 Leave fireworks to the professionals.
✨ Keep sparklers away from children's clothing and always provide close adult supervision.

Sparklers can burn at temperatures exceeding 1,200°F and can quickly ignite clothing or cause serious burns.

Let's work together to keep our families, neighbors, and community safe while enjoying all that summer has to offer.

🚒 Have a safe and happy June!
