BFD to host clean-up event

The Bolivar Fire Department will be hosting two community-wide Firewise clean-up days on October 28-29, 2015.  The two-day event coincides with the beginning of fall fire season in Tennessee.  During these two days, the department will be conducting home hazard assessments in the neighborhoods identified as “at risk” for wild fire.
The department will be assisting the neighborhoods by providing help with manual labor, educating home owners of the risks in their neighborhoods, and providing tips on reducing those risks.  The neighborhoods identified earlier this year by the Firewise committee include:  Pleasant Creek, El Capitan, Shelby, Orange, Locust, and McNeal.
