Firewood available for seniors, disabled

More than 45 California Conservation Corps members bucked and split wood on California Tahoe Conservancy property this month that will be distributed by Kiwanis to seniors and disabled in the basin.

Corps members participated in service projects around the state on this Volunteer Day.

The wood was generated by the U.S. Forest Service Upper Truckee River restoration project. This four-year project includes Conservancy property. The Conservancy took the lead on salvaging the extra wood.

The Kiwanis Club is organizing distribution. Seniors or disabled individuals who are interested in the wood may contact Richard Dart at (530) 543.0805.
