The Gravenhurst Fire Department offers these tips if you choose a natural Christmas tree this year: • Choose a Tree with fresh, green needles that do not fall off when touched. • Before placing the tree in the stand, cut about 2” (60mm) from the base of the trunk. • Make sure the tree is at least 3 feet (1 metre) away from any heat source, like fireplaces, radiators, candles, heat vents or lights. • Make sure the tree is not blocking an exit. • Add water to the tree stand daily. • Use lights that have the label of a recognized testing laboratory. • Never use candles to decorate the tree • Always turn off Christmas tree lights before leaving the home or going to bed. • And remember, after Christmas, dispose of the tree promptly. Dried-out trees are a fire danger and should not be left in the home or garage, or against the outside of the home. Have a fire safe Christmas. A message from our family, to yours!
