Williams Lake Close Call

Sunday, July 21st kind of hectic. A fire started in the valley, right along side Williams Lake. 4 water bombers, 2 helicopters and a spotter plus ground crew from several departments fought the fire. You can see in our first views black smoke and explosions.

Della and our Executive developed a plan should we had to evacuate the campground. Which was made more difficult with fires both north and south,.
