Looking to support a great cause for Giving Tuesday?
Please consider supporting the post-Glass Fire fire prevention efforts which are managed by the Spring Mountain Fire Safe Council.
In the aftermath of the Glass Fire, September 27 – October 20 of 2020, the Spring Mountain Fire Safe Council (SMFSC) was established. “The impact of the Glass Fire prompted us to get ready for the next fire: to get the neighbors together, to do what we can to create a more resilient and fire-safe forest, to protect our homes and provide a resource for education and communication within the Spring Mountain community. We also hope to secure funding for vegetation management and other fire-safe projects,” founders Pam Bergman and Shari Gardner explain.
The Spring Mountain Fire Safe Council is now raising money to install the Beacon Box mapping system on Spring Mountain. The Beacon Boxes will be a great new tool in the Spring Mountain Fire Safe Council’s arsenal to help the community. Each Beacon Box is approximately 2 x 2’ with a bright red light on top, so that they’re easily visible at night or in smoky conditions.
