Each year, thousands of acres of wildland and many homes are destroyed by fires that can erupt at any time of the year from a variety of causes, including arson, lightning, and debris burning.

As a result of this growth, fire protection becomes everyone’s responsibility. Follow these steps to help you prepare in the event of a wildfire.
