Are you ready for wildfire season?
FireSmart your Home
Being ready starts with preparing your home and making your community more resilient by engaging in FireSmart activities. To book a FireSmart assessment, call 604-384-7323 or email firesmart@slrd.bc.ca to get started.
Create a plan
Review the PreparedBC Wildfire Preparedness Guide and create an emergency plan with your family or your neighbours. Put together an emergency supply kit including a go bag for each member of your household. If you are visiting or own recreation property in the SLRD, create an plan for those properties as well.
Stay informed and Prepare to evacuate
Stay informed by visiting and subscribing to trusted, timely and accurate information such as the BC Wildfire Service dashboard and SLRD Alerts.
Before wildfire season starts, print and review the FireSmart Last-Minute Checklist and hang it visibly in your home. Before evacuating, if it is safe to do so, take steps to quickly assess and work on last-minute mitigation tips before evacuating your property. Ask for help if necessary.
