Transcript - Hudson's Hope - Building a Wildfire Resilient Community
Friendly Smiles and waves when you move through town. Our population here in Hudson's hope is about 900 and we've
00:34done over 100 home assessments with all of our critical infrastructure assessments as well and having our team and our local government support us in that has been exceptional we
00:42had over 22 departments attend an assist us during the battleship Mountain wildfire. And the thing I heard the most for most of these members and
00:51Crews that came in we're the fact of how many of our residents did have fire smarting completed around their properties which
01:00made the jobs of these Crews much easier when installing the structural Protection Program Our program was really Successful by reaching out to our younger
01:06Generations. We managed to get into some of our schools and really bring that message home to them which in turn they bring that
01:15home to their parents and they can work on it as a family. Our community population is a diverse group of seniors and
01:24younger families. So in true small town fashion, all of our residents will come together and we'll continue to work together as a community protecting Hudson's
01:30Hope from the future of wildfire.
