Please join us for our fourth in a series of Workshops
for FireScape Mendocino to be held at the Community Hall in Willits, CA on
Wednesday, September 3 and Thursday, September 4, 2014.
FireScape Mendocino is a voluntary collaborative effort to shape
the future of our fire-prone landscape in and near the Mendocino National
Forest. Working together, we will emphasize shared learning, problem solving
and action on the ground. Taking the next step in this collaborative effort,
our goals will be:
• Share homework and updates since the last workshop.
• Use the situation diagram from Workshop 3 to decide
which strategies the group will pursue, in order to boost the health and
viability of the group’s shared values.
• Work through interactive exercises about the landscape,
including case studies and maps from the local landscape.
• Introduce the next step – developing the activity plan
that will guide work on the ground.
• Continue to build shared learning among participants in
FireScape Mendocino.
During this two-day event, participants will work in both
small and large groups with a variety of collaborators. Guided by the best
practices of the North America Fire Learning Network, FireScape Mendocino is
designed to enable people with diverse perspectives to find zones of agreement
where we can achieve tangible results in our communities and the surrounding
landscapes.
We need people...
... With local community perspectives
... Who enjoy outdoor recreation (camping, hunting,
hiking, OHV, etc.)
... With perspectives on living with wildfires
... Who manage land - whether it’s a ranch, timberlands
or their backyard
... With thoughts about community and landscape planning
... With enthusiasm and an interest in the future of our
local landscapes
All meetings are open to the public and everyone is
welcome to participate. Space may be limited, so if you are part of a large
family or organization, please consider sending a few folks to speak for the
larger group.
