Clear Sky Retreat Centre will host its second annual FireSmart Information Session February 24.

“This is a way for friends and community neighbours to learn more about how they can protect their properties from wildfire and develop FireSmart plans on rural properties and farms that will include livestock and pet considerations,” said Local FireSmart Representative Carla Hayday.

The information session will get underway at 3 p.m. on Saturday, February 24 at the Clear Sky Retreat Centre on Cockell Road in Bull River.

It will include a brief introduction to the FireSmart Program and focus on information about the farm and ranch program. Advice will also be given on how to create a map and plan for rural properties in case of wildfire.

This workshop is open to anyone living in Wardner or along the Bull River – Fort Steele Road.

There is no cost for the session, however, registration is required in advance.

Please email [email protected], or call Clear Sky at 250-429 3929 to register no later than noon on February 23.
