Another reminder from Sparky on how to Grill Smart, Grill Safe 🔥

Stay with your grill while cooking. Most grill fires happen when no one is watching.

✅ Never leave a grill unattended
✅ Keep kids & pets at least 3 feet away
✅ Avoid loose clothing while cooking
✅ Keep a water source or fire extinguisher nearby

A little attention goes a long way in keeping your cookout safe and enjoyable this summer.
