It’s no secret that fire season is upon us, across the country and right here in Central Oregon. The majority of the large fires in our region occur in more remote, wooded areas and that can lead to a false sense of security. Wildfires in our cities are a rare occurrence but when they do happen the results are devastating. Instead of creating alarm or anxiety, our goal is to provide practical, proven tips that can make a big difference in protecting your property and our beautiful community.
