Warning - Cal Fire has asked that we let you know that a group called Firehouse Promotions, Inc is currently running a scam in Ramona.   They will tell you that they have been contracted by the fire department to produce dry erase memo boards that the firemen will distribute to schools, etc., in the community with fire tips.  They will ask you to pay to advertise on this board.  Cal-Fire has not contracted with this group.  Please do not give them any money.
