The Rock Creek Fire Department invites all community members to attend our upcoming Firewise Community Wildfire Preparedness Meeting.

Wildfire preparedness is a shared responsibility, and this meeting is an important opportunity for residents to learn how we can work together to better protect our homes, properties, and community.

During this meeting, we will discuss wildfire risks in our area, prevention strategies, and steps residents can take to improve preparedness before fire season intensifies.

Recent fire history near Rock Creek highlights why preparation matters:

  • Cherry Springs Fire (1985): 7,579 acres

  • Cave Canyon Fire (2012): 88,819 acres

  • Badger Fire (2020): 90,142 acres

These fires serve as a reminder that wildfire is a very real threat in our region.

We are also pleased to share that Aaron Latta is leading the Firewise application process for our area. His efforts are helping move our community toward stronger wildfire preparedness and improved protection for residents.

We encourage all residents to attend, ask questions, and learn how we can build a safer, more resilient community together.

We hope to see you there.
