Black Forest Fire Remembrance

June 10, 2023 @ 1:00 pm

Black Forest Fire Remembrance
10 Years of Recovery
Saturday, June 10th, 1:00pm
Black Forest Community Center

UPDATE: Due to the interest in this event, we have created a parking area in the Backyard near the Western Storefront. Several disabled parking spots will be available near the Community Center, but please head to the Backyard Area for general event parking. Thank you! 

Join us for the Black Forest Fire Remembrance event featuring Keynote Speaker, Congressman Doug Lamborn.

This event will also feature a Scout-led Flag Ceremony, informational booths regarding Firewise and Mitigation, plus other local speakers. You are invited to pack a picnic lunch to enjoy in the Log School Park, or food will be available for purchase. BFCC Volunteers will be selling hot dogs and R&R Cafe and Rizuto’s Ice Cream will have items for purchase. Come out to spend time with your neighbors as we recognize our community’s recovery from the Fire.

Black Forest Community REGROW TO RESTORE

If you are able, dig and pot a small sapling from your property and bring it to the event. We have lists of residents whose properties were destroyed by the fire. Our hope for this project is the community sharing of trees.
