Wildfires Ravage Canada and North America

Association member Len Lloyd reports from British Columbia that he’s safe from the wildfires currently (21 August) ravaging much of the province.  On Vancouver Island, thankfully some way from the fires, he reports:

‘…. We are lucky – we are ok – been hot but the Island is safe. It is comforting to know that the old brigade and its comradeship continues to exist – thanks to you and the rest of the volunteers we are kept in touch.
My regards to all and in this day and age – stay safe and healthy.
Thank you for all your hard work.
Len
