Forest Fire Danger

Please Prevent Forest Fires

Even though the ground is very wet, the ground cover is very dry. Extreme fire weather is predicted for this week.

Please be careful when you clean out your fire place and woodstoves.

Make sure you keep the ashes in a metal can with a metal cover. If you dump them in the garden make sure you soak them with a garden hose.
