Across Arkansas, wildland firefighters, foresters, rangers, and volunteer departments are facing more fires and more dangerous conditions. When a wildfire starts, they move toward heat, smoke, and unpredictable terrain to protect our forests, our homes, and our communities. They do this knowing the risks, and they do it day after day.
We can support them by following burn bans, staying weather aware, and being fire smart in our daily activities. Give crews and equipment the room they need to work and take time to thank the people who serve on the line and in our communities.
Our firefighters stand ready when Arkansas needs them. Let’s do our part to help keep them safe.
