Monroe: Fire district promotes safety
Monroe Fire District 3 celebrates the holiday season with a fire safety awareness program, “Keep the Wreath Green.”
The fire district is hanging a wreath on the outside of its two fire stations through Jan. 3. The wreaths are decorated with green lights. One white light will honor firefighter line-of-duty deaths across the country. A red light bulb will replace a green bulb in the wreath each time they respond to a residential fire, to remind citizens of seasonal fire dangers.
