Burn pile update

We are going to reestablish our burns in the area by the dam. Whitney Watson has volunteered to be the burn meister. Weather permitting, he will burn whatever is in the pile on the third Saturday of the month in August, September, and October.

Please be conscientious about what you put in the pile, and remember to put wood "up" rather that "out" in relation to the pile. Finally, we will continue to notify the neighborhood when we can or cannot burn. We ceased burning for the summer, but some folks recently started still putting limbs and brush in the old spot anyway. This creates problems for us, as the water board gets concerned about potential debris in the event of flooding. So don't just toss wood at the site unless we give a green light. It's OK now, but after October, you'll need to follow our announcements.
