The Tehama Glenn Unit recently refurbished the gazebo at the Red Bluff District Fairgrounds. A Ishi Conservation Crew led by Captain Tom Crespin removed the wood shakes on the roof and replaced them with Class A composition shingles. This work was done to demonstrate how an existing building was upgraded making it fire resistant. Wood shake roofs are easily ignited from fire sparks and can spread very rapidly destroying a home or other structure. The Gazebo was built in 1979 in honor of Bob Kersteins, Unit Chief, Tehama Glenn Unit.. |
