The "Keep the Wreath Red" campaign is officially underway for the month of December! 🌟 This important initiative serves as a reminder for everyone to focus on fire safety throughout the holiday season. A red wreath is proudly displayed in the front lobby window of our new station, symbolizing our commitment to a fire-free community.
Each red bulb on the wreath represents a day without a fire incident. Should a fire occur, one of the red bulbs will be replaced with a white one. Our goal is to keep the wreath glowing red for the entire month by encouraging safe holiday practices in every home and business.
Let’s work together to make this a safe and joyful season for all. From all of us at North Park Fire, we wish you a happy, healthy, and fire-safe holiday!
I started this program 35 years ago after seeing this program at the Illinois Fire Chiefs Conference in 1988. To my knowledge there have never been any fires related to Christmas Decorations in our fire district since. I also would like to wish everyone a happy, healthy and safe holiday season.
Looks great
