Happy Thanksgiving from the officers & members of the Upper Allen Twp. Fire Department. Please stay safe today as you gather to break bread with family, friends, & neighbors. Below are some fire-safety reminders, stay safe, don’t invite us to dinner!

1. Don’t wear loose-fitting clothing around open flames.

2. Don’t leave your food unattended on the stove or in the oven, Make sure a person is always in the kitchen watching the food

3. If deep-frying turkey, do it outside. Never deep fry a frozen Turkey!!

4. Never put water on a grease fire. Cover with a lid if possible, use baking soda or a fire extinguisher if available.

5. Store fire extinguishers in plain sight and near an exit – not under the sink. If the unthinkable happens and a fire starts call 911 immediately! A fire can double in size in a minute or less! We’d rather get called early & show up in time to help then not get called until it’s to late!
