Friends of Butte Creek assisted the Butte Creek Canyon Volunteer Fire Company to apply for a grant to upgrade their fire protection equipment and were successful! The California Fire Foundation awarded the Company $15,000 toward the purchase and installation of a Skid Unit Pumper that fits in the department pickup truck. It carries 300 gallons of water and can carry fire fighting foam also. Friends of Butte Creek donated our time to write the grant and added $1000 to the project as a local match. We are proud to help our brave firefighters and the Company!
