Southern Humboldt Comes Together for WRD

To everyone who attended, instructed, supported, and helped make the Wildland Readiness Drill possible—thank you!!

Seeing volunteers from across our region come together to train, learn, and support one another was a powerful reminder of what makes the Southern Humboldt fire service so special. The dedication, professionalism, and teamwork displayed throughout the day reflect the commitment each of you brings to protecting our communities.

This event has always been about more than annual refresher training. It’s about building relationships, sharing knowledge, and ensuring that when our communities need us most, we are ready to respond together.

On behalf of Briceland Volunteer Fire Department, thank you for your time, hard work, and continued commitment to firefighter safety and regional cooperation. We are grateful for every participant, instructor, partner agency, and supporter who helped make this year’s drill a success.

Special Thanks to the Southern Humboldt Community Park for hosting us, to CAL FIRE Humboldt-Del Norte Unit, Reach Air Medical Services, the Mattole Restoration Council and the California State Coastal Conservancy.
