    A wildldand firefighter walks with Sparky the Fire Dog at the California State Fair, near Sacramento, California, July 29, 2026. Forest Service employees joined CAL FIRE, the Bureau of Land Management, the Bureau of Indian Affairs, and the Firefighters Burn Institute to host Camp Smokey at the California State Fair. The interactive exhibit offered families hands‑on lessons in fire safety and wildfire prevention, with daily demonstrations led by firefighters and educators from across the U.S. Visitors also had the chance to meet Smokey Bear and friends, and learn practical steps to help prevent wildfires.
