August 4th, 2009 was certainly a scary day for all of us in Glenoaks Canyon. After getting a call at work from my wife that our canyon was on fir
e and having to hike up to our house from Harvey, I thought the worst.
Thanks to all the brave firefighters and helicopter pilots that fought the blaze, all our homes are safe. I will post more photos and add more to this post later. I saw a lot of canyon residents with cameras. If you have any photos from yesterday, please email them to me (mitchellr3@gmail.com) so that we can create a visual archive of this event.
Again, on behalf of GOCHA, we are so thankful that everyone is safe and that no homes were destroyed in the fire.

I was very upset when I found out about these fires!
As a community we need to help protect our canyon and its residents from dangerous events like this thank you to all GOCHA members that helped with the evacuation plans this is a perfect example of why everyone should have an evacuation plan!
