Keep It Cool, Stay Fire-Wise

Community Wildfire Mitigation Luncheon and Presentation

Hosted by Thayne Senior Center and Alpine Area Wildfire Protection Coalition-AAWPC 

February 26, 12:30 at the Thayne Senior Center-115 Petersen Parkway, Thayne, WY.

While wildfire partners play an important role in preparing the community for wildfires, the responsibility really falls on individuals and homeowners to prepare themselves before fire season. 

Please join AAWPC partners as they provide information on best practices and steps in wildfire mitigation for homeowners.  Members will also share progress updates with work being applied to the revision of the 2026 Lincoln County Community Wildfire Protection Plan. 

Hope to see you there!!
