Bonfire Procedures

Bonfires may be held in designated areas along Junior Lake only. Students wishing to host a bonfire must have the approval of the Office of Student Life at least 3 business days prior to the event. This advance registration ensures that students have located a proper source of wood to burn and have a plan for a responsible gathering. Fires must be started with diesel fuel or charcoal fluid only. Gasoline is prohibited when starting a bonfire. Only firewood may be used. Fires must be extinguished with water at the end of the event. Bonfires must end by 11:00 p.m. William Woods University’s Department of Campus Safety must inspect the site each time a bonfire is scheduled.
