PLEASANT PARK ROAD EVACUATION ROUTE PROJECT VOLUNTEERS NEEDED!
This Saturday, June 27th 7:00am to 3:00pm
Massive wildfires are becoming more common / Safe Evacuation Routes are becoming more critical / Past wildfire evacuation routes in the Marshall Fire & Paradise, CA fire and so many more have been described as “Driving straight into an inferno, with smoke too thick, flames too high, and winds too strong to endure.” If a wildfire would start, Pleasant Park Road, a major Evacuation Route out of Conifer to Denver area, or even into Conifer if the fire starts below, would most likely trap evacuees in traffic jams with flames along the side of the road.
Join the Conifer Rotary Crew and community volunteers to thin the PLEASANT PARK ROAD EVACUATION ROUTE. It’s fun and a great way to meet new friends and your neighbors!
Conifer Rotary Club is organizing. They have insurance for all volunteers, pay the costs for traffic plans and slash drop-off, and obtain the county permits. The county is providing traffic control. CORE has already cut trees along power lines, and local foresters have marked trees of interest to property owners. Many tree companies are offering free or heavily discounted work on the largest trees. Volunteers with trailers, chippers and simply to haul & load trailers are needed.
Saturday, June 27, 7 a.m. to 3 p.m: Pleasant Park Road, south of Oehlmann Park Road, starting on the east side. Professionals will cut the largest trees. We need trucks and trailers. Most people will be hauling branches to trailers. We need YOU, especially younger (teenage volunteers! https://www.signupgenius.com/go/20F0849AEAF2DAAFA7-63904449-june
