Jacob championed the idea of merging unevenly funded, disparate volunteer rural fire agencies into a cohesive regional group for years before the Board’s 2008 vote. “We’re not just celebrating our successes over the past 15 years,” Jacob said. “We’re actually moving forward to a higher level of preparedness and continuing to improve, continuing to invest in making sure that this region, all 3 million-plus people, (and) all the government agencies, are the best prepared that we can be. Not just for fire, but for any kind of disaster (that) may occur in the region. “That’s what this is all about,” Jacob said. “It’s about saving lives; it’s about saving property and making sure that we work together to do that.” CAL FIRE and County Fire Chief Tony Mecham told the Board Tuesday that San Diego County Fire now delivers cohesive fire protection and emergency medical services to 42 communities through 35 fire stations and more than 500 firefighters, emergency responders and personnel. In 2016, the San Diego County Fire Authority received the highest possible rating for structural firefighting capabilities, among the top 10% in the nation, from the Insurance Service Office, an independent fire rating agency. The County Fire Authority and CAL FIRE currently protect the Julian community from the station across from the High School and the Cuyamaca Station overlooking the lake. The status of the Julian-Cuyamaca Fire Protection District remains in the court, the next hearing is scheduled for late November. The district fire station on Hwy 79 remains vacant until the issue is resolved.

Over 1000 Go Fishing Saturday At OP Ball Derby

September 28th may have started cold and foggy, but over a thousand people turned out for the 20th annual OP Ball Memorial Kids Fishing in the Pines derby at Lake Cuyamaca. With over 450 kids registered to fish and well over a hundred volunteers plus friends and family, it was a fantastic day despite the weather. The Lake was stocked with over 5,000 lbs of trout on Thursday the 26th, with 4,000 lbs from Mt. Lassen including trophy Rainbows and the coveted “Lightning Trout,” as well as a pant from the California Department of Fish and Wildlife of over 1000 lbs. Although the weather slowed the fishing down a little, many fish were caught and tons of prizes were handed out.

Families were already lining up at 5:30 for the 6am registration, and everyone got to fishing. At 12pm final weigh-ins were done and the winners were sorted while everyone enjoyed our wonderful face painter Ramona, cool beats

provided by our DJ and even a snow cone truck that was busy despite the chill. For our 7 and under division Brailey Hayes took 3rd place with a 3.05 lb Lightning trout, Kayla continued on page 7
