Fairmont Friends:

We are looking for volunteers to help hand out door knockers this holiday weekend.

Our goal is simple: to remind our community that it is time to secure attractants. Our best chance of getting this important information directly to property owners is over the holiday weekend.

If you can spare just 90 minutes on either Friday or Saturday, we would love your help. Please contact me if you are available!

Let’s all work together to keep wildlife wild and our community safe.

Windermere and Fairmont Friends:
We have had numerous black bear sightings this summer. We need these bears and their little ones to move along and return to the mountains, but they will not do this if there is food available in our communities.
Secure your attractants. This means removing garbage from your garage regularly—every few days at minimum. Black bears have been known to break into garages in search of food.
It is equally important to harvest your fruit trees. Domestic fruit is not a natural food source for bears. Introducing them to apples, crabapples and pears does them no good—and it is unsafe for them to stick around our homes and become habituated to human food.
A fed bear is a bear that is more likely to keep returning. Let’s work together to make sure these bears and their little ones have no reason to stay in our community.
Secure your attractants. Remove the food reward. Lets work together to keep wildlife wild and our communities safe!
