Fire Season is rapidly approaching fueled by the record rainfall this winter. Now is the time to work together to mitigate the risks from the buildup of invasive vegetation and highly flammable waste from abandoned campsites. All of UH is in a Cal Fire zone because of our proximity to canyons, so this concerns all of us. UHCA is teaming up with I Love a Clean San Diego and Adopt a Canyon to conduct fire mitigation in UH.

The first of these cleanups will be Sunday June 4th from 9 am to Noon at the S-163 freeway on-ramp (near Washington St just west of Lincoln Ave), which will be closed to traffic during the Rock 'n' Roll Marathon. We will start at Mystic Canyon (aka Camelot Canyon) under the Vermont St Pedestrian Bridge and work our way down along Hwy 163. Please sign up at cleanup@uhsd.org.

Remember to wear protective clothing and bring water. Tools will be provided. Please tell your neighbors. Thank you and stay safe!
