Cuando se trata de celebrar las fiestas, los latinos siempre lo hacemos a lo grande.

The iconic Smokey Bear turns 81 this year, and we will celebrate his birthday with gusto. We hear that Smokey Bear will appear for pictures and “paw-tographs” at Sequoyah, Lake Murray and Roman Nose State Parks. The celebration activities include a scavenger hunt, arts and crafts, games, prizes and giveaways, and a special fire prevention demonstration by Smokey Bear and the U.S. Forest Service.
