This flyer from 1919 is unique. We are still shooting fireworks off but will probably forego the bomb and gr***de throwing practice!

Tackling some spring cleaning or painting this weekend?

Oil-soaked rags can start a fire if not handled safely. As oil-based paints and stains dry, they give off heat. If rags are piled up or put in a closed container, that heat can build up and start a fire.

Stay safe:
• Lay rags flat to dry outside, away from anything that can burn
• Or place them in a metal container with a tight-fitting lid

The volunteer fire service continues to face staffing shortages, even as call volumes skyrocket.
