Keep The Wreath Red Again
For the sixth straight year the Huntley Fire Protection District will be involved in a state wide campaign to alert residents conceming fires caused by holiday decorations. The project is called "KEEP THE WREATH RED".
As in previous years a la^ge wreath has been put up in the window in front of Station #1 on Coral Street. The red lights on the wreath will be constantly lit. If there is a fire in the district caused directly by holiday decorations a bulb on the wreath will be changed to white.
During the last five years the lights on the wreath have remained red throughout the holiday season. The fire district asks that all residents please continue to be fire safety minded again this year and "Keep The Wreath Red".
Make sure Christmas trees are fresh and kept away from any type of heat and that they are checked often for water in the tree stand. Make sure all lights are UL tested and check all lights and ¦-nrds to insure they are in
good condition. Never use inside lights for outside use as they are not made to withstand the weather. Keep children and pets away from electrical cords around the Christmas tree and other lighted decorations. Be very careful when you're smoking, or others are smoking, around Christmas decorations. Gift wrapping should never be discarded in the fireplace. House Bill 3, signed into law by Govemor Thompson, required all dwellings to have smoke detectors installed by July 1, 1988.
When looking for a gift this year, think about choosing a smoke detector and fire extinguisher. "Smoke Detectors Save Lives" and what better gift to give to 'someone you care about.
The Christmas holiday season is a time of joy. Don't let this time be saddened by not taking proper care of Christmas trees and decorations. The Huntley Fire Protection District wishes all of you a happy and "safe" holiday season.

Webelos Earn Readyman Badge
On November 26th the Webelo Scouts went to visit the Huntley Fire Department. Chief Dave Veath, Bill Kreasal, and Kevin Ellison were the men who instructed us in earning our Readyman Badge. In our meeting Kevin Ellison taught us how to treat burns, cuts and scratches, and broken bones. Towards the end of the meeting the men put a dummy on the table. On the dummy he showed us how to do C.P.R. and the Hiemlich Manuever.
