The Oracle Firewise Board and the Oracle Fire District are pleased to host a homeowners’ tree and Firewise educational workshop, which will be held at the Oracle Community Center on Saturday, May 16 from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.
A certified Arborist from the Arizona Community Tree Council will discuss how to properly select, plant and maintain your trees for years of benefit and enjoyment. This workshop will help homeowners plant and maintain trees that live long and healthy lives, while protecting your home against wildfire.
Representatives from the Arizona State Forestry Division and Coronado National Forest will be on hand to discuss the National Firewise program, and how it is being implemented throughout Arizona, as well as to talk about current fire conditions and what kinds of fire restrictions are being considered in Coronado National Forest for the wildfire season.
Members of the Oracle Firewise Board will also be available to describe Firewise efforts made in Oracle and their ongoing efforts to create a Firewise, safe and beautiful community.
Please join us for this free workshop on Saturday, May 16, 2015, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Oracle Community Center, 685 W. American Ave., in Oracle. A fund-raiser pancake, egg and bacon breakfast will be offered by Oracle Community Center. Call 520-896-2980 or email tacosta@oraclefire.org for more information.
