After class time and discussion, we practiced Fire Shelter Deployment, using Foam to extinguish and then a quick run over the rigs we all had with us.

Today starts a process of change and improvements!

The Alderwood Property owned by OORFPD and the Sunforest Road District is coming to life!

OORFPD is having a shed built there today for storage of supplies/gear.
OORFPD is also in communication with the county to submit plans in order to get power and water on the lot.
Our goal is to have another Fire and Meeting hall built on the property to be used by both organizations as needed.

Why you ask?!
By having the ability to store more trucks full of water in our neighborhood, we are drastically cutting down response time to any emergencies in the neighborhood AND raising our ISO rating.

Raising our ISO rating means lower home owners insurance for residents!

Meetings can be held in the neighborhood, at the facility. We will not have to drive out Beal fighting weather and bad roads, nor inconvenience volunteers offering their homes for a convenient meeting place.

This is all a work in progress that we are very excited about and hope to see more interest for both organizations when things start moving forward and progressing!

Here’s to new opportunities and ideas!

Team

This group has come together to provide support and strategic action plans for La Pine, Sunriver, Three Rivers AND Northern Klamath County!

We will continue being an active part of this group and hope to bring a lot of great new information and services to our community!

Becoming a FireWise neighborhood/community is our goal!

Keep an eye out each month for more info!


Big thanks to La Pine Fire Department for hosting and Kathy Debone for making sure we got included!

All is safe and children were safely evacuated and picked up on second bus. All were reassured by our crew that they were not in danger and bus driver did what he needed to do to keep them all safe.

Be safe and aware!
