Texas A&M Forest Service will be presenting critical information regarding wildfire risk assessment and establishing wildfire mitigation strategies at the Tye Preston Memorial Library, Canyon Lake, TX.

Presentations will be geared towards residents living in the wildland urban interface, or where humans and their structures intermix with vegetation, with the goal of encouraging homeowners to take action to protect their property from the threat of wildfire.
