NOTES FROM THE JULY MEETING
1. Continue to dear pin e needles and debris around your property.
Needless to say, this is a very dry year and the fire danger is
high.
2. Traffic continues to be a serious problem on the main road in
Foresta. Several serious collisions have occurred with damage to
both cars involved. Please take special concern at the blind curve
near the campground road.
The speeding cars are a potential hazard to bike riders and hikers .
Please check your speed before someone gets killed.
