This 1\/4 acre fire on Sunday started after a campfire from the previous evening re-ignited and spread across the owner\u2019s backyard. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here are some tips for properly extinguishing a campfire from our friend Smokey Bear:\"?\" Allow the wood to burn to ash if possible. \"?\" Pour lots of water on the fire. Drown ALL embers, not just red ones. Pour until the hissing sound stops. \"?\" If you don\u2019t have enough water, stir dirt or sand into the embers with a shovel to bury the fire. Make sure no embers are exposed and still smoldering. \"?\" Continue adding water, dirt, or sand and stirring with a shovel until all material is cool. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Remember – if it\u2019s too hot to touch, it\u2019s too hot to leave! Keep your family and your community safe by properly extinguishing outside fires.<\/a><\/a><\/a><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
