Campfire Ban Remains in Effect
Posted on
Despite recent cooler weather, the campfire ban remains in effect as the forests and ground in Cumberland remain very dry. Please continue to use caution in the Village and in surrounding forests.
You can help be the eyes of Cumberland Fire Rescue by reporting smoke in the forests to 911 or *5555 on your cell. Early detection is key to forest fire suppression.
The recreational campfire prohibition is in place in the following jurisdictions:
- Village of Cumberland
- Cumberland Lake Park
- Cumberland Fire Protection District, including areas of Royston
Portable CSA and ULC approved campfire devices, barbeques, and cook stoves with flame less than 15cm (6″) are permitted at this time.
