Acton Fire 9/2/07 – evacuation for some residents

Greetings all – this was not the update I had planned on sending out.
This will be short and sweet…..

If you have seen the news or radio you know there is a call out for evacuation of Acton – we ARE NOT IN THE IMMEDIATE EVAC AREA. We are however in the path of ash and smoke, although so far not enough to move hounds over.

I would like to ask, if you want to help in the event we need assistance up here, that you join the Daphneyland@yahoogroups.com website, which I have open to all membership currently and you post all contact phone numbers, your name, your area and what you can help with.
Our emergency plan calls for us to load up and move the hounds to the emergency evac area in Tarzana, at which point we will require foster homes until such a time as we could return to the property – this is in an extreme case only as obviously we would NOT stress out the hounds by moving them unless we were in danger.

More likely currently is this: Animal fleeing from the fire, evac area and emergency triage for the local community may require our needing volunteers assistance over the next few days, we are very close to full as we sit, but could possibly be required to help out, and we will do so if we are able. If you have some free time in the next few days while this fire rages, please consider this…. we need help every single day between the hours of 9:30 a.m. and 1:00 a.m., call before getting off the freeway so that we can get the gate open for you, it is not left open except during public hours of Sat & Sun 11 – 5 – outside of those hours the gate is shut and access is not easy. If you have some free time, the hounds will need you. That is true 100% of the time.

Again, WE ARE NOT UNDER EVACUATION AND NOT LIKELY TO BE UNLESS THIS FIRE MOVES A GREAT DISTANCE NORTH!!!

Join the Daphneyland@yahoogroups.com email list as that will make it easy in the event we have to move or evac at some time in the furture, anyone can sound the alarm and we can access all databases from any computer system.

Thank you everyone……
