University of Nevada Cooperative Extension is once again coordinating the collaborative efforts of federal, state and local fire services, public safety agencies, community organizations and others to participate in Nevada Wildfire w88 online live casino Month throughout May. This year's message is "Create Unity, Fire-Adapt Your Community!" to stress that when community members work together to prepare for wildfire, they can effectively reduce the wildfire threat.
"Residents of a fire-adapted community understand that they share their level of w88 online live casino risk with their neighbors," said Ed Smith, University of Nevada Cooperative Extension natural resource specialist and co-manager of the Living With Fire educational program. "If one house is inadequately prepared, the risk to the whole neighborhood increases. A sense that 'we are all in this together' is prevalent."
Events are scheduled across the state to encourage residents to take action. Cooperative Extension's Living With Fire Program representatives will be participating in many of this year's events, including:
- May 1: Southern Nevada Wildland Fire w88 online live casino Half Marathon and 5K Run, 8 a.m. - noon, at the Mt. Charleston Visitor Center, 2525 Kyle Canyon Road in Mt. Charleston.
