HomeMy WebLinkAboutEuless Today Winter/Spring 2006/2007Dear Citizens,
It seems that the weather is finally cooling down
from the long, hot summer. As you know, Euless has
fun activities all year long. We've got some great ones
coming up. You can find out more inside this Mission Sti
newsletter. ...
We are proud to announce the Volunteers of the Year
for 2006 along with the Lifetime Achievement Award.
We are truly thankful for our volunteers and what they
contribute to our great city. We also have selected the youth volunteer of
the year and the business volunteer of the year. Our volunteers are very
special and we could not support all our great events without them.
You'll notice in the recreation section of the newsletter, we have marked V L E ► \' S
"Smart Choice" programs and classes that are a part of a Healthy New
Euless effort. We really encourage all of our citizens to get out and exercise �R `
on some way. Walking especially is something that people of any age and
fitness level can participate in. We have great parks with walking paths all
over the city. Please see the parks map on page 26 to find out about more
parks in your neighborhood. Our parks are beautiful, and are a great place ;
to exercise with friends or on your own. Enjoy!
The Euless Historical Preservation Committee is promoting awareness of
the historical heritage in Euless. The Committee gives tours 1-5 p.m. on the
second Saturday each month of the Fuller House, Himes Log House and
McCormick Barn. We hope you enjoy learning about Euless history and can
take a tour of Heritage Park.
A safety issue that really increases during the Holidays is fire safety. Fires
can occur very easily in and around Christmas trees. It's very important to
keep the tree fresh throughout the season by ensuring that it doesn't dry
out and the lights used to decorate the tree are safe to use on trees. In
addition, candles are another huge factor contributing to fires. Candles are
pretty look at and smell nice, but they need to be taken very seriously when
it comes to fire safety. Please be cautious when using candles and never
leave a burning candle unattended. It just takes seconds for a large fire to
start.
We are delighted to announce that Pipeline Road is now open for travel.
That completes our 1998 Bond Election Projects. We are working together
with Grapevine on Glade Road, which should be completed sometime next
year.
The Euless Library is a hub of activity year round. They always have
educational and fun programs as well as great resources for any endeavor
you may come across. Libraries have books, magazines, databases and
internet access all at no charge. Do visit our library and achieve your goals.
Euless has proudly been a Tree City USA for the past nineteen years and
is firmly committed to the importance of trees in the environment. This
year Arbor Daze will be scaled back in size so members of our community
can join in the fun. Please stay tuned for more information about our
upcoming Arbor Daze celebration in April.
Again, a special thanks to all our Volunteers because TOGETHER WE
ARE BUILDING A BETTER TOMORROW.

They are a warm -creating, light -giving, odor -covering
addition to almost every home, yet they can be one of the most
dangerous items in your house. We're referring to candles.
Candles continue to be a significant factor in fires in the
United States and have contributed to significant fires in the
Euless area. In 2002, the United States experienced
approximately 18,000 fires caused by candles. These fires
caused an estimated 130 deaths, 1,350 injuries and $333
million dollars in property loss according to the National Fire
Protection Association.
What can you do to protect your home or business from a
dangerous fire caused by a candle?
• Extinguish all candles when
leaving a room or going to sleep.
• Keep candles away from items that
can catch fire, including curtains,
clothing and books.
• Place candles in a secure place
where they won't be knocked over
or bumped.
• Use sturdy, non-combustible candle
holders that won't tip easily and are
wide enough to collect dripping

• Never use candles around The source of the fire was
flammable or combustible liquids. a candle.
• Never carry a lit candle!
• Keep candle wicks trimmed to 1/" and extinguish taper and
pillar candles when they get to within two inches of the
holder. Votive candles should be extinguished when the last
1/a" of wax starts to melt.
• Some candles, such as tea lights, can melt plastic. Be sure
they are on a non-combustible surface.
• Candles generate a lot of heat and can ignite combustible
materials above them.
• Don't lean across a candle. Clothing and hair can ignite
very easily
• Keep children and pets away from areas where you are
burning candles.
• When you put them out, double check in a few minutes.
Candles can smolder and reignite with tragic consequences.
Be certain they are out!

Dear Earl: ;moi
Help! I'm new to Euless ander
I've never seen the Blue Bag
Recycling Program before.
What am I supposed to do?
Blue -less in Euless
Dear Blue -Less:
Euless uses the Blue Bag Program for recyclables.
They can be purchased at grocery stores or home
improvement stores locally. The blue bags should be
used to recycle glass bottles and jars; plastic bottles
and containers (#'s 1,2,3,4,5 and 7 only) and metal,
(aluminum, tin and steel) cans. Papers and paper
products like cereal box board and junk mail all go in
the paper sacks. Whatever can't be recycled should
be placed in trash bags and heads to the landfill.
Clear bags will be picked up as trash, so please be
sure to use a blue bag.
SOME RECYCLING HINTS:
• You do not have to remove labels or crush cans.
• Rinse out the containers before throwing them in
the blue bag.
• Remove caps or lids because they aren't recycled.
• Do not recycle aerosol cans or hazardous
materials.
• If you have a lot of phone books, magazines, and
newspapers it's fine to tie them into bundles.
• Corrugated cardboard can either be put into the
sacks or tied in bundles. Just be sure your
bundles weigh less than 50 pounds.
Blue bags are only picked up once a week as
compared to garbage which is picked up twice a
week. Please be sure you know your recycling day to
avoid problems. Remember to keep the blue bags and
paper sacks separate from your garbage (at least
three feet is best) on your recycling pick-up day.
They should be at your drawbridge by 7 a.m. the day
of your pick up.
For more information please call the Recycling
Hotline at (817) 685-1825 or visit us on the web at
www.euless.org/recycling.
The decorated Christmas tree can be traced
back to the ancient Romans and the first
known reference to the Christmas tree in
America was in the mid 18th century. Family
traditions abound regarding the decorating
and displaying of these trees. But, the one
tradition associated with this wonderful
symbol that we wish would go away, is fire.
While less than one-tenth of one percent of
the live, cut trees sold in America involve
fires each year, the fires they produce can be
large, fast moving and tragic. Here are some
tips from the Euless Fire Department
regarding the decorating and displaying of
your Christmas tree that can help you have a
safe, memorable Christmas:
* If you purchase an artificial tree,
select one that is listed as flame
retardant. We recommend an
artificial tree, but if you purchase
v a live, cut tree select one that is
not already losing needles excessively. This
may indicate that it is already dried out.
WE When you get your newly -
purchased live tree home, cut off
about one inch of the base and
stand the tree in a bucket of water
for about twenty-four hours in the
garage or other unheated portion of your
home. Then cut off another inch and place
the tree in a sturdy tree stand that will hold
one gallon of water. Keep the stand full of
water. These steps should ensure that your
tree will remain fresh throughout the season.
* Place your tree away from exits,
heat discharge vents and heat
sources such as stoves, space
heaters and fireplaces. Not only do
v these dry out your live tree, they
are potential sources of ignition.
6 817-685-1400
* If you use lights use only those
that are listed by Underwriters
Laboratories and do not string
more together than the manu-
V facturer recommends. This is
usually three strings of the small, push -in
lights and approximately fifty of the larger,
screw-in lights.
1* NEVER USE CANDLES!
Turn off all electric decorations
when you go to bed and when
you leave your home.
V
* Keep an eye on those small,
inquisitive kids when they are
near the tree.
V
If you have any questions, please call the
Fire Marshal's Office at 817-685-1600.
Have a safe and wonderful Holiday season!
