The Lincoln County Fire Defense Board, Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office and Lincoln County Public Health are partnering together to prepare our community members, business owners, and visitors on our local wildfire threat conditions, public safety evacuation response procedures, and efforts individuals can take to be ready for wildfire season.
May 1st is Wildfire Community Preparedness Day; this is a great day to develop a list of the items you can do around your home or property for wildfire mitigation.

Over the next several weeks you will see that many of our state partners have already or will be kicking off wildfire readiness programs. We will try to share these when they are referred to us and post on our local “What’s happening now” webpage.

Locally, due to continued physical distancing, our outreach campaign will be offered in a virtual format until we can be with you again for in person events. We are expanding our 2-hour Lincoln County Wildfire Readiness presentation into six modules and adding an additional session for each Fire District/Department of Lincoln County. These sessions, split up into modules will give more flexibility to our community members to pick and choose those sessions of most interest to them.

Wildfire Readiness Community Presentations – Virtual:

All presentations are scheduled from 7-8pm; the recordings and presentation slides will be posted to the website for access.
