$60,000 spent on Blue River recovery

A half-year after the Holiday Farm Fire, volunteers from the Cascade Relief Team has racked up an impressive list of accomplishments. In addition to the huge amount of donated labor direct expenses have ranged from items like $18,000 in disposal costs to almost $4,000 in fuel or from $16,000 in rental fees to over $6,000 for asbestos removal.

Although the Blue Rover project is moving forward an additional $12,00 is needed for anticipated disposal costs. People wishing to make a donation can go to: Cascaderelief.org.
