🏡 Community Wildfire Preparedness Day is THIS WEEKEND! 🔔🔥

Community Wildfire Preparedness Day encourages individuals and groups living in wildfire‑prone areas to take action that helps protect homes and strengthen community safety.

📅 This year it’s recognized on Saturday, May 2nd — and many communities have already gotten a head start!

Projects like clearing defensible space, reducing fuels around your home, and working with neighbors can make a big difference. Every action counts when it comes to wildfire readiness.
