Sheila Sabine - Emergency Preparedness

Dear Pinehaven Neighbors,

Last Saturday at 5am, there was a fire at 6501 Heather Ridge - garage and cars destroyed in a matter of minutes behind my house. The flames and smoke were very scary and we were forced to evacuate immediately. Fortunately for all of us on Pinehaven, the fire department got there in time.

Below you will find a list of essential things to remember in the event that you have to evacuate your home quickly. I hope you do not have to use it but just in case…

Sincerely,
Sheila Sabine
