Wednesday May 22nd, 7pm, at North Oyster Community Hall
Join us for a workshop with Todd Carnahan, and Dr. Angela Eykelbosh to learn how our community can prepare for heat domes, smoke and wildfire threats. Presentations will touch on emergency planning, hazard mitigation, and evacuation alerts for our area. Their presentations will be followed by a Q&A.
Todd Carnahan is a FireSmart representative with Emergency Management Cowichan (EMC). He is also a conservation photographer and biologist focused on the nature of Vancouver Island and the Salish Sea. https://www.toddcarnahan.com
Dr. Angela Eykelbosh is an environmental health scientist and knowledge translation specialist with VIHA.
Firesmart Home Assessments are a free and confidential service provided by EMC. Qualified homeowners may be eligible for grants of up to $1000. We will learn how to create an inexpensive air filter for wildfire smoke in the home, and how to beat the summer heat.
Free. In person. Not on Zoom!
