Come join us on Saturday, June 9th as we continue to make Hilltop Rd. safer from fire danger. These neighbors have worked hard for years and it is paying off! We will be meeting at 31600 Hilltop Rd. for our Safety meetings as well as our potluck meal. We are following a different model this year: Sawyers should plan to arrive at 7:45 to drop off potluck items and have their safety meeting. We will give them an hour headstart so there is enough slash to keep the Swampers busy. Sawyers will be done before 11:00. Swampers will arrive by 8:45 to drop items and have a safety meeting. We will clear and chip slash until 1:00 at the latest, or sooner if we get it done. Then we will have a fabulous potluck meal together, sometime between 12 and 1. Please bring: Gloves, long sleeves, water, sun protection, ear and eye protection, and a helmet if you have one (we have extras). Please also bring a chair if you can. Use the sign up button below so we know how many people can make it. Thanks!!
