The Coconino County Parks and Recreation Department is having a community meeting on Wednesday, September 19, 2018 from 6-7:30 pm at the Maine Consolidated School. Please plan to attend if you can – it should be very interesting to see what plans the County has for the Parks area and be able to provide our needs to them.

SFE FD Big Backyard Sale

It is not a garage sale (it’s bigger), it is not a yard sale (it’s bigger still), it is the SFE Fire Department Neighborhood Big Backyard sale held in the shipping containers behind SFE FD building #1.

We’ve been gathering all kinds of interesting stuff that needs a new home. Stop by and see what you need (what you just can’t live without)! All proceeds benefit the Sherwood Forest Estates Fire Department.

8:00 am – 12:00 pm Sunday, Sept. 2

Please feel free to join us as a volunteer for the breakfast. We will be setting up on Friday, August 31 at 4pm at the Firehouse. Clean up will commence at 10am on Saturday, with lots of tables and chairs to put away.

Neighborhood Clean-Up Thank You

2018 NEIGHBORHOOD CLEAN-UP

Thank You

Good afternoon Sherwood Forest Estates neighbors!

Just take notice as you drive in and out of our beautiful community. It is so nicely cleaned up.

With the help of fellow Annual Neighborhood Clean-Up Committee member’s, Danny Hunter, Vicki Hunter and Walt Krushinsky and 30 neighbor volunteers we have had another successful neighborhood and surrounding area clean-up and enjoyed BBQ pulled pork sandwiches and sides at the Krushinsky cabin. We enjoyed meeting new neighbors and sharing a fun social afternoon with everyone.

We had 30 volunteers with a total of 160 hours worked and we collected approximately 260 pounds of miscellaneous trash. Thank you, Danny and Walt, for transporting it all into the Williams refuse disposal site.

Any bottled water we purchased and did not use for this event was donated to the SFE Fire Department.

The Committee would like to thank all of the volunteer’s and set up crew who helped to make this year’s clean up event a great success.

Thank you so much neighbors,

Kathie Krushinsky, POA Member

Enjoying Wonderful Neighbors!

Coconino County and USFS To Lift Fire Bans

County lifts fire restrictions

FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. — In coordination with the U.S. Forest Service, Coconino County will lift fire restrictions below the South Rim of the Grand Canyon at 8 a.m., Wednesday, July 11. Stage Two Restrictions will remain in effect above the North Rim of the Canyon.

Fire restrictions are lifted because the region received significant moisture over the past week and due to continued precipitation in the forecast.

Although much of the region has received rain, fire conditions may still be high in some areas. Residents and visitors are asked to use caution when using equipment or items that can spark a fire. They are also asked to extinguish all campfires, operate ATVS and motorcycles with spark arrestors and to use caution when operating barbeque grills. Residents and visitors are reminded they can be legally responsible for causing wildfires.

The Coconino Wildland Defense Ordinance allows for the Coconino County Emergency Manager to remove restrictions when conditions for fire restrictions no longer exist. A link to the full ordinance can be found at www.coconino.az.gov/ready.
