Turkey Safety Tips

Did you know that cooking is the leading cause of holiday home fires? With all the hustle and bustle, it's easy to overlook safety.

Keep these tips in mind:

• Thaw your turkey safely in the fridge or cold water (never at room temperature)
• Keep an eye on your turkey while it cooks — never leave it unattended
• Use a meat thermometer to ensure it reaches 165°F
• If frying, always do it outdoors on a flat surface, away from anything flammable

Let's keep the season safe and delicious!

Holiday Safety Tips

Keep your celebrations bright and your belongings safe with these simple tips:

• Schedule deliveries for times you'll be home to receive packages
• Stay alert while shopping — put your phone away and keep valuables close
• Park in well-lit areas and keep items out of sight
• Bring gifts inside right away — don't leave them in your car

The City of La Cañada Flintridge wishes all residents a safe and merry holiday season!
