Sky lanterns are dangerous and illegal to fly in Washington. They are strictly prohibited and banned in the state of Washington.  The miniature hot air balloons can create a dangerous situation if they collide with a tree, building or power line. The lanterns have to land somewhere, and sometimes they’re still partly on fire when they hit the ground. They’ve been known to ignite dry vegetation.

We certainly don’t need uncontrolled sources of open flame flying above our forests. We already have enough things to cause forest fires to worry about without adding them to the mix.  Do not use any decoration that released into the air or use any that have a flame.

• No fireworks are allowed at Anderson Lodge. For safety reasons, no fireworks, sparklers or flammable items will be permitted on any of our properties.

Anderson Lodge will provide 1 cart of firewood for campfires unless there is a burn ban in effect.  If there is a burn ban, a campfire may be allowed if you use charcoal only. Contact the office to learn of the fire danger status.Fires are only permitted within our approved fire pit rings. DO NOT USE THE PORTABLE PROPANE FIRE RINGS. The advantage to these fire rings are that they are portable. You are not allowed to have fires in any other area. ALL CAMPFIRES ARE TO BE IN ANDERSON LODGE’S APPROVED FIRE RINGS IN OUR CAMPFIRE AMPHITHEATER.

The standard season for a Burn Ban is July 15-Sept 30. No firewood would be provided during a burn ban and no firewood is allowed to be used in the campfire area during a burn ban. If there is no burn ban and the fire danger level is low, 1 cart of firewood would be provided.

SAFETY RULES FOR CAMPFIRES:

• Always have a hose hooked up and ready to use at the campfire area.

We have been to facilities where the kitchens supplies are so sparse, you have to bring a mountain of supplies just to prepare simple meals.  With kitchens at Anderson Lodge, it is so easy to prepare meals for large groups!  You are welcome to use all the supplies in our kitchens but be mindful to return them to their locations.  Sorry, we don’t have chafing dishes or an ice maker.

We provide paper towels and toilet paper. You will need to bring napkins for meal service.

We do not have “glass” tumblers or wine glasses.  We do however have acrylic tumblers for your use.

So to be safe, bring items that are especially important for meal service for your event.
