This project took place in Casa Loma, West Kelowna under the over-site of the Casa Loma Community Association. I am a retired Captain in the fire service and initiated a Fire Warden and FireSmart Recognition program here in Casa Loma 4 years ago. With the help of the Neighbourhood Small Grant program we are able to continue to engage the community in these very important programs.
The Neighbourhood Small Grant not only helps bringing the community together for educational purposes but also helps provide a waste bin for reducing fire load around properties in the area.
Last year our city was hit with the McDougall Creek Wildfire and many people were affected by this tragedy. Our community was under an Evacuation Alert and we were ready for an Evacuation Order at any time. We all felt more prepared and calm because of these implemented initiatives and the available grants to help support our projects.
Thank You!!
