Fire Pit Safety

The WFPS would like to remind residents of the regulations regarding outdoor fire receptacles such as fire pits and outdoor BBQs. Note that all open fires, including recreational fires within approved outdoor receptacles on public or private property, are not permitted when wind speed exceeds 25 km/h. When using fire pits within Assiniboine Park, never leave a fire unattended and always ensure your fire is fully extinguished before leaving your site. Thank you.
