LOWER LAKE, Calif. – The first Sierra Club Lake Group public meeting of the fall will be held on Wednesday, Sept. 21.

The group will meet beginning at 7 p.m. at the Lower Lake Methodist Church social hall, 16255 Second St. 

Although the 170-year-old Lower Lake Methodist sanctuary was destroyed in the Clayton Fire, the social hall still stands, and is still available to serve the community.

Wearing her hat as a member of the Lake County Resource Conservation District Board of Directors, Lake Group Conservation Chair Victoria Brandon will talk about the recent merger of the East Lake and West Lake RCDs, and their work helping the community recover from the devastating wildfires of 2015 and 2016.

These efforts include distribution of both hardwoods and conifers to landowners, organizing volunteers to replant Trailside Park in Middletown, and provision of free chipping services.

As always the meeting is free and open to the public. For more information about the RCD projects visit www.lakercd.org , or contact Brandon at 707-994-1931 or This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. .
