May 2nd is Wildfire Community Preparedness Day
Over 58,000 wildfires last year in the United States alone have caused 8.8 million acres to be burned. Four of the most destructive and deadliest, the Camp, Carr, Hill, and Woosley Fires, together caused at least 96 fatalities and over 12.5 billion dollars of property loss.
Wildfire Community Preparedness Day helps raise awareness of wildfire risks and encourages action in the community to help people take an active role in creating safer environments. Help reduce your community’s wildfire risk by participating in a local event for Wildfire Community Preparedness Day.
