The race is part of activities for Nevada Wildfire w88 casino games Month in May, which is a collaborative effort by local, state and federal firefighting agencies, University of Nevada Cooperative Extension and many others. This year's wildfire w88 casino games message, "Create Unity, Fire-Adapt Your Community!" stresses that when community members work together to prepare for wildfire, they can more effectively reduce the wildfire threat.
Cooperative Extension's Living With Fire Program, which began in 1997, teaches homeowners how to live more safely with the w88 casino games threat. The program has received numerous national awards, and been credited with spurring actions that have saved many homes.
