ANNOUNCING: A New Firewise Newsletter – Issue #1

Our first Bayside Acres Firewise Newsletter is packed with four pages of time-sensitive resources and information.

Our dry winter and gusty winds may have you wondering what you can do to protect your home from wildfire. Northern California’s official fire season begins in June, but there’s plenty to do now. And resources to help you.

Did you know there are grants available to help you clear defensible space around your home? And to “harden your home” with building materials that resist heat, flames and embers?

Some insurance companies are offering discounts for Firewise USA® certified communities. And more free Chipper Days are already on the calendar to help you clear wildfire hazards in your yard. 

There’s a festival planned too. FireSAFE Marin wants you to grab the kids and head out to the Marin Fairgrounds for “Ember Stomp” in May. There will be exhibits, live bands, great food, hands on activities and more.

Read Our Neighborhood Firewise Newsletter for All The Details

Here is our first neighborhood Firewise newsletter hot off the press. Your Bayside Acres Firewise Team (BAFT) brings you “Bayside Acres Firewise News.” It provides details and links to put all these resources and events at your fingertips.

We hope you find it useful, and look forward to your comments and suggestions.

Sincerely yours,
Julia Glenister, Chair
