              Boys and Girls play an important part in
                     fire safety. Many fires in the home are
                     caused by unsafe handling of matches
        or candles, or by the careless
                   use of certain flammable materials
or liquids.

   You can be sure that you are prepared to be a
          Junior Chief by making sure you know what to
         do in case of a fire. Knowing that it is important
       to have a fire extinguisher and working smoke
        detectors can save valuable time during a fire.
Also having an escape route planned with an outside meeting area were the whole family can gather is very important. Practicing the escape route will make
sure that everyone is ready.
