Expert tips on campfires

It's their job to prevent wildfires and put them out when necessary, and the BC Wildfire Service has produced a Youtube video telling people everything they need to know about having a campfire.

Brenna Ward and Kyla Fraser, with the BCWS, walk people through the dos, and don'ts, of having a campfire.

The first thing they urge is for people to make sure there is no fire ban in place.

As of 2 p.m. July 20, campfires were still allowed in the Kamloops Fire District which includes the Okanagan.

Ward and Fraser go on to talk about what is allowed for a campfire and most importantly, how to properly extinguish a campfire.
