PORTALS I & II IS NOW AN OFFICIAL FIREWISE COMMUNITY!
On Saturday, May 22nd, Portals I & II was presented
with a special award—recognition as an official
FireWise Community!
Members from State Fire, the
Pine/Strawberry Fire Department, and the
Homeowners Association spoke of the importance of
being a FireWise Community, citing the history of fires
in our area, as well as the vulnerability of our community.
Our thanks to our neighbors on the FireWise Committee:
Kevin Albert, Bob England, Dan Griffith, Ann Judd,
Jack Malloy, Bill Myers and Doug Reeve for their efforts,
both past and ongoing, in reaching this goal of making
Portals I & II a safer community!
