As we all gather to enjoy delicious food and the company of loved ones, safety should be part of your holiday plans too. The CMFD is here to ensure your Thanksgiving is joyful and incident-free. Here are some important tips to keep in mind: 🔥 Kitchen Safety - Thanksgiving is the peak day for cooking fires! Always stay attentive while cooking, especially when using stovetops or ovens. Keep flammable items away from heat, and make sure you have a fire extinguisher handy—just in case. 🕯️ Candle Safety - Set the holiday mood with flameless candles for a safer ambiance. If you’re using traditional candles, place them on stable surfaces, keep them away from flammable items, and never leave them unattended. 🦃 Turkey Fryer Tips - Planning to fry your turkey? Always do so outdoors, on a flat surface, and far from your home, deck, or garage. Follow the fryer manufacturer’s instructions carefully to avoid accidents, and never overfill the oil! From all of us at the Center Moriches Fire Department, we wish you a safe, Happy Thanksgiving! |
