We are so excited to have our friends Smokey Bear & Woodsy Owl at ECHO this summer with the "Home Sweet Home" traveling exhibit.

To celebrate its kickoff Saturday, we were joined by the lovable characters, the Burlington Fire Department stopped by with a truck and helpful safety tips, Mt. Abe students and a Capella singers performed for guests, there were showings of a Bill Nye the Science Guy fire video and "What's Your Watermark?" a locally-made documentary about the need for clean water.

ECHO's Jessie Forand captured some of the day's fun events. Take a look and be sure to visit the exhibit and its special guests,
