☀️ BEAT THE HEAT

High temperatures can become dangerous quickly. Take a few simple steps to protect yourself, your family, and your neighbors:

💧 Stay hydrated — drink water throughout the day.
🌳 Limit strenuous outdoor activity during the hottest part of the day and take breaks in the shade.
❄️ Stay cool — spend time in an air-conditioned location when possible.
👕 Wear lightweight, loose-fitting clothing and sunscreen.
👵 Check on older adults, neighbors, and others who may be especially vulnerable to heat.
🐾 Never leave children or pets in a parked vehicle — even for a minute.

⚠️ Know the signs of heat illness: heavy sweating, dizziness, headache, weakness, nausea, or muscle cramps.

In an ongoing effort to reduce wildfire risk in high-hazard areas, the Hayward Fire Department is accepting applications for our annual No-Cost Residential Chipping Program.

As part of Hayward Fire’s Wildfire Ready East Bay initiative, the program provides free chipping services to residents living in the Hayward Hills and Fairview Fire Protection District. The program helps property owners create defensible space by removing dry vegetation, brush, and tree limbs near homes.

Services are available on a first-come, first-served basis, and early application is encouraged due to limited funding.

🔥 Protect your home. Reduce wildfire risk. Create defensible space.
