Fire Danger Goes to Moderate

The local fire danger rating will be increased to moderate on Thursday July 22. Given the number of escaped recreational, slash, and trash fires the past few weeks we may be in for a busy season. If you want to be on the list of personnel available for State Mobe, and haven't contacted the Chief or AC, please do so soon. The last two weeks of July and first two weeks of August are often the busiest time for these calls.
