The Strathcona Regional District looks to get people ready for wildfire season through two virtual sessions. The district says earlier this year, they hired a Wildfire Risk reduction coordinator to educate the public on the risk of wildfires. During emergency preparedness week in May, the coordinator held multiple in-person sessions across the region on wildfire and FireSmart initiatives. After hearing from residents about wanting more virtual sessions, the district will be hosting two of them later this month. Board chair Mark Baker says each of us have a role to play in safeguarding communities from wildfires. “By adopting FireSmart practices early, you can significantly enhance your property’s wildfire resilience through straightforward household tasks, which will be explained further at the session," said Baker. Along with FireSmart, the sessions will touch on protection and resiliency plans, emergency notifications, and emergency support services. Both sessions will be on June 27, with one running from 2 to 3 p.m., while the other is from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. For the link, click here.
