October 20, 2012 - Fully Contained
Thank you to the hard work of our local fire fighters and emergency personnel for working diligently to keep our community safe. The US Forest Service
has announced 100% containment of the thankfully short lived Lookout Fire near Painted Cave. For many of us long time locals it brought back scary
memories of the last Painted Cave fire, but luckily the end results were not the same. Thank you again SB Fire Team!
In the news: Roger has your end of the week Scanner Reports, Edhatters share some sweetness with Flash Friday, and a few traffic accidents clogged our
streets. Read these stories and more, below.
