Polk wetland and meadow habitat.
The Land Trust has also mediated in
important land exchanges, notably
the Crown Pacific exchange of 4,000
acres with the U.S. Forest Service.
"Nobody's fur flies when the
Deschutes Basin Land Trust is in
vited into the process," states board
member Alice Koehler of Tumalo, "
because all parties are participating
on a voluntary basis."

"The Great Escape" (the world's largest fire drill"
to take place in Warm Springs October 8-14
Warm Springs Fire & Safety
has teamed up with NFPA, the offi
cial sponsor of Fire Prevention Week
for nearly 80 years, and other fire
departments across North America to
actively support "The Great Escape"
(the worlds largest fire drill) during
Fire Prevention Week 2000, October
8-14.
"The Great Escape" is a three
year public safety campaign aimed at
making people safer from fire by
motivating them to develop and prac
tice a home fire escape plan. Results
from the past two years highlight the
campaign's effectiveness: NFPA has
documented hundreds of thousands
of families participating in "The Great
Escape" each year, with 58 lives
saved as a direct result, including 35
children under the age of 12. In addi
tion, NFPA's survey data shows a sig
nificant 9 increase in the number
of people who have developed and
practiced a home fire escape plan over
the past two years. But there is still
much work to be done in preparing
families in our community to survive
a fire.
Home fire escape planning can
make the difference between life and
death in a fire a typical home fire can
become deadly fast. From the time the
smoke alarm sounds, people may
have as little as two minutes to es
cape, that means everyone in the
household needs to snap into action
immediately, which takes planning
and practice.
"The Great Escape" is a fun
family-oriented program that can
make a life-saving difference tor ev
erybody. As we enter the third and
final year of this campaign, I hop
more residents participate than ever
before.
"The Great Escape" fire dril
will take place in Warm Springs on
Wednesday, October 1 1 at 7:00 p.m
There are forms available at Fire &
Safety if vou wish to participate, we
will also be visiting the elementary
school so watch for your children to
have the form also. If you have any
questions please call Karla at 553
1634.
