Aid to Fires

There have been many groups and schools that have been rallying to try to help those that have lost their homes in the fire recently. Some of the schools trying to help the cause include Diamond Bar High School, which was closed on Monday because of the horrible air quality. Throughout this week, they have set up booths for people who were bringing in cans of food and what else they could to help.
On that note, we need to congratulate all the firefighters who worked hard to help protect the homes in Diamond Bar, Brea, Yorba Linda, and Sylmar. Even though they couldn't protect every single home, they tried to do their best so we should thank them for trying to despite the situation. However, they were able to successfully protect all but one of the Country Estate Houses as well as curb the fires by using tons of foscheck and sand. It took them hours, but they were able to stop the fire. Let's hope that no more of these kinds of fires come to our area. It is great that the firefighters are also starting to teach citizens how to be of aid to the firefighters.
