2025 Lonely Pine Drive Haul Away Event 

Sharing the Responsibility
You Cut and stack - We’ll Dispose of it 

This is an opportunity for residents of Lonely Pine Drive to reduce the risk of wildfire
to your homes by implementing wildfire resiliency strategies.

If you didn’t attend the May 3rd Firewise event please review the recording of “Tips for
Backyard Wildfire Resiliency” at: https://youtu.be/u3kuhZ_0tkc 

 Then work on your property by cutting and stacking the hazardous woody debris
along the roadside or opening of your driveway. This event is funded by the St. Louis
County Firewise program. Please keep track of your
hours worked on the form on the back of this flier.
Your hours recorded are an in-kind match to pay the
contractor who will be hauling away the debris
