Summary
Dodge City Fire Department is launching the Bucket Brigade to stop fireworks-related fires this Fourth of July—handing out 100 buckets at Station 1 to soak used fireworks in water overnight before disposal. Last year, six fires erupted from improperly tossed fireworks, risking homes and straining emergency crews. Inspired by Colorado’s success with zero post-firework fires, this simple, free program aims to keep neighborhoods safe and emergency responders available for real emergencies. Buckets drop off Monday–Friday, 8 AM–5 PM, first come, first served—limit one per household. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
