Make Your Hunt Camp as Safe as Your Home
In Case of Fire, Smoke Alarms and CO Detectors Save Lives
(firmenpresse) - PETERBOROUGH, ONTARIO -- (Marketwire) -- 09/30/11 -- There is a photo associated with this Press Release.
It is fall hunting season and across the province, thousands of hunters are taking up temporary residence in their camps and cabins. The Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters and the City of Kawartha Lakes Fire Service remind hunters and others enjoying their rural properties to put the same fire prevention measures into place at their cabins as they have at home.
"Time at the camp is a precious opportunity to recharge our batteries and enjoy our hunting traditions with friends and family," said Mike Reader, OFAH Executive Director. "Hunters are extremely responsible when it comes to firearms safety, and we need to be just as safety-minded when it comes to protecting ourselves, our loved ones, and our natural surroundings from the devastation of a fire."
The following tips will help ensure a safe, enjoyable stay at the camp or cabin:
"Fires at remote properties such as hunt camps and cabins are challenging for firefighters to reach. In case a fire does break out, ensure everyone gets out safely by having working smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detector on each floor," said CKL Fire Chief Mark Pankhurst. "You may have only two to three minutes to escape, so commit to making your camp as safe as your home."
