Fire Prevention focused Earth Day
Come join us to celebrate Earth Day by clearing overgrown fire roads to keep the community safe! CVNL and Point San Pedro Road Coalition are partnering together for a family friendly Saturday morning of neighborhood fire safety and prevention. With all the rain this year, the plants and weeds have rapidly grown on the fire roads and once summer arrives these plants will quickly dry out, becoming potential fuel for a wildfire. We will be removing fire-prone plants from the fire roads to keep the neighboring communities safe! There will be coffee, snacks and smoothie bike (where you can create and blend your own smoothie through pedaling!) Please park at Glenwood Elementary School parking lot and follow the walking directions in the map below to where we will be working to clear the fire road. Or, gather with the other volunteers to carpool from the parking lot to the top of Main Dr., where the fire road begins. Attire: Long pants, long sleeves, sturdy shoes, a hat, and sunscreen Additional items to bring: Gardening gloves, trowels, pruning shears, and a reusable water bottle.
