Yuma, Arizona - We would like to get the message out that parents need to talk about fire safety with their children. There is no reason for children to have matches or lighters in their possession, or access to them in their home. Curiosity about fire is normal, so it is all that much more important to teach your children fire is a serious thing, and not a toy.

The Yuma Fire Department participates in the Juvenile Fire Setters program and provides classes that teach both parents and children about the dangers and consequences of playing with fire.

Don’t forget Saturday October 15th from 9 am until noon there will be a Fire Prevention Week Open House at the Public Safety Training Facility, 3575 S. Avenue 4E. Free Admission, displays, demonstrations, refreshments. Come meet your Yuma Fire Department! For more information, contact the Yuma Fire Department Public Information Office at 928-373-4855.
