Volunteers needed for mitiga ting Hwy 73, our most dangerous evacuation route June 8 and 29

No one wants to be stuck in a traffic jam with flames on the side of the road. Highway 73 is our most dangerous wildfire evacuation route. Every one on the west side of Highway 73 and many people on the east side can lea ve the mountains only on this road. To get started on this necessary commun ity project, we are asking the community to help us.

On J une 8 and June 29, we will be thinning vegetation for 30 feet off the west side of Highway 73 between Blue Creek Road and Surrey Drive. All seven prop erty owners have agreed to this community service; thank you!
