Fire FollowUp

WOW!!  We had over 2000 hits on the blog in the last 24 hours as people are searching for more news about the fire.  My email has been inundated with folks asking questions…..so here’s my answer.

The fire is officially under investigation by the Fire Marshall.  The area is all blocked off with yellow police tape and no one is allowed access inside the tape.  A security firm has been hired and is on duty to make sure no one trespasses until the investigation is complete.  Until an official report is issued, there are no answers and no further information.  The Casa Grande Dispatch paper isn’t published on Mondays…so we have to wait until tomorrow’s edition to see if they have more info.

Three RVs and one travel trailer were totally destroyed.  The 3 RV owners were still here in the park but I doubt they want their names published here.  The travel trailer owner had left for the season but has been notified.

From what I can see, about 4 other nearby RVs have substantial damage.  It should be safe to say that whether they are repairable remains in question with their insurance companies.  Again, no one will know for a while yet.  I’ll post the Dispatch news as soon as it becomes available.

I did upload a better video that shows more detail.  Check it under yesterday’s photos.  You may get an error message, but try again a little later as the site is very busy lately.  Thanks again for writing.  All your encouraging comments keep me motivated!
