It takes fire -- they have to have that heat to pop open and grow again.

But not until they determine what started the fire.

The last thing we want to do is bring a bunch of families in, and they feel unwelcome, and they're out next year.

This is the first time we've burned these units. And it might be the first time they were burned since the people who used to live here did burning years ago.

We've worked well together on the fire department and I think just him and I going down will be a good experience for both of us and draw us closer together,

We can be involved in the Citizens' Fire Academy or go into schools to teach children. Anything that has to do with life safety.
