Celebration in Redwood Valley Honors Volunteer Indian Firefighters Who Saved Homes and Lives – Feb 20, 2018

Remembrances and dedications connected with the fires last October continue nearly every week, even while attention turns to cleanup and rebuilding.

When the fires moved onto the Redwood Valley Rancheria on October 8th, eleven members of the Little River Band of Pomo Indians joined together to fight the flames. Reporter Sarah Reith was at the annual Northern Circle Indian Housing Authority meeting, where the men were honored.
