SBNA Local Neighborhood Groups
SBNA is divided into ten local neighborhood groups to facilitate communication with our nearby neighbors. Each local group decides on its activities and has a leader.
Today's:
- Fire Risk
- As of 10/21/24, we are not in fire season, so there is no designated fire danger level or public use restrictions of gas powered equipment, etc.

- Backyard Burning – LRAPA, or, call 541-726-3976. (Can I burn my burnpiles today?)
