Chino Hills Historical Society Talk Monday Night on Mineral Springs Resorts in Carbon Canyon

This is a reminder that Monday the 14th at 7 p.m., the Chino Hills Historical Society hosts a talk at the Chino Hills Community Center, 14250 Peyton Drive, called "In Hot Water: The La Vida and Carbon Canyon Mineral Springs Resorts."

While La Vida Mineral Springs on the Brea side of Carbon Canyon is somewhat known, the Carbon Canyon Mineral Springs in Sleepy Hollow in the Chino Hills portion is all but forgotten. Paul R. Spitzzeri will share some of the history of these two health resorts, so join us for this discussion of our local history.

Carbon Canyon Fire Safe Council Brush Drop-Off A Success

 The morning began relatively cool, though it heated up a good deal later, but the Carbon Canyon Fire Safe Council's Brush Drop Off was an unqualified success.

Council volunteers assisted Canyon residents with unloading brush and other plant material during the course of nearly five hours, filling two roll-off bins containing thousands of pounds of debris.

Thanks to those residents, Council volunteers and the City of Chino Hills and Waste Management for providing the bins.  This event helps to reduce wildfire risk in the Canyon, especially in a year with well over 1 million acres burned in California and a La Niña weather system upon us.

Carbon Canyon Fire Safe Council Brush Drop-Off Tomorrow Morning!

It's going to be a hot weekend and this is a reminder of the ever-present wildfire danger in Carbon Canyon. So, tomorrow morning, Saturday the 4th from 8 to Noon, the Carbon Canyon Fire Safe Council hosts its biannual Brush Drop-Off event at Fire Station 64 on Canon Lane, north of Carbon Canyon Road.

Chino Hills residents ONLY of the Canyon are encouraged to bring cut brush to roll-off bins provided free by Waste Management with the assistant of the City of Chino Hills. Help us reduce the risk of wildfire damage!
