Here are six easy things anybody can do to prevent fires: 🌲 Check for fire restrictions in the area. 🚫 Drown your campfire or skip it altogether. 🔗 Check your chains; they should never drag. 🚭 Smoke and dispose of cigarettes responsibly. 🎇 Leave the fireworks at home. 🚗 Only park on designated surfaces. 👉 For wildfire and evacuation information visit CentralOregonFire.org

Here are six easy things anybody can do to prevent fires: Know Before You Go 🌲🔥 Before heading out, always check for fire restrictions or closures. Visit your nearest ranger station or CentralOregonFire.org to stay informed. Drown Your Campfire 🚫🔥 Never leave a campfire without making sure it’s completely out. Pour water until it’s cold to the touch and keep your fire small. Or, consider skipping the fire to enjoy the dark skies. Check Your Chains 🔗⚠️ When towing a trailer, ensure no chains or metal parts are dragging. Sparks from loose chains can ignite a wildfire. Smoke Responsibly 🚭🔥 Respect fire restrictions and always dispose of cigarette butts properly. Fully extinguish them before throwing them away. Leave the Fireworks at Home 🎇🚫 Fireworks and exploding targets are prohibited on federal public lands. Don’t Be the Spark 🚗🔥 Avoid driving or parking on dry grass. Hot exhaust pipes can easily start a fire.
🖤❤️💛💚 This Juneteenth, let’s come together to celebrate freedom and progress! — The History Behind Juneteenth — Although the Emancipation Proclamation was signed in 1863, many remained enslaved. It wasn’t until June 19, 1865, that Maj. Gen. Gordon Granger announced in Galveston, Texas, that the Civil War had ended and slavery was over. Now, 158 years later, we honor this milestone, celebrate progress, and advocate for continued change against ongoing systematic oppression. — Get Involved Locally with @thefathersgroup — The Father’s Group champions collaboration and celebrates diverse cross-cultural experiences. As a Black-led non-profit, they focus on education, economic empowerment, community cohesion, and uplifting Black students and families. Join them in making a difference! #Juneteenth #VisitBend #TheFathersGroup #Freedom #Progress
