The Keep the Wreath Red campaign has used by Fire Departments and Fire Districts for over 25 years to raise awareness of the increase of fires during the Holiday season. Because of the uses of flammable decorations, candles, and cooking of Holiday foods, there is an increasing number of house fires within the U.S.
During the Holiday season, Fire Stations now display wreaths decorated with Red lights only.
Every time a fire occurs within the community due to the holidays, a red bulb is replaced with a white bulb to remind residents to practice Fire Safety during not just the holidays, but at All times.
The Pingree Grove and Countryside Fire District has placed wreaths at all three of our Fire Stations and lets Keep the Wreath Red. |
