You know the scenario: Lots of winter rain makes for luxurious greenery on the hillsides in spring, which means a tangle of dried-out fuel for brush fires come late summer.
So now is a good time for children to learn about wildfires and fire prevention. A fun way to start is with a free membership in the Smokey the Bear Junior Forest Rangers. The U.S. Forest Service will send children a pin-on badge, a membership card printed with the rules for preventing wildfires, and a certificate.
Write for your kit to Smokey the Bear Junior Forest Rangers, Washington, D.C. 20252.
