Ive been training for a solid nine months. The poor air quality canceled several other events in tahoe and reno, as well. Our National Park Service Plans to set its own fire in the north bay today.

We felt a need to come together as a community to Work Together with the police and with all the entities that were receiving funding to support this particular population.
