Countryside is partnering with the National Gasoline Safety Project to get the message out about not using gasoline to start fires.

Most parents today say they handle gasoline more safely than their own parents did. Parents know that gasoline is extremely flammable and its vapors can explode, and they know kids learn by example. That’s why most parents don’t use gas to start fires. The goal of this partnership is to make sure every parent knows.

For more information, please check out the NGSP’s website at http://www.stopgasfires.org.

Join Countryside’s staff for a special Stop Gas Fires event. The event will feature program activities targeting adults and fire safety activities for children. There will be free hot dogs, chips, and beverages. This event is being sponsored by the Portable Fuel Container Manufacturer’s Association.
