Fire Prevention Week

"Prevent Kitchen Fires"—that's the message of this year's
Fire Prevention Week

From October 6-12, we'll be spreading the word that more fires start in the kitchen than in any other part of the home—and inform people how to keep cooking fires from starting in the first place.

Sparky has his own channel, and it's the place to watch Sparky safety videos. Be sure to visit  Sparky TV this summer to see FPW campaign-related videos.
