Poway, CA – The City of Poway has placed sand and bags at
four locations, to assist residents who sustained property
damage due to the Witch Creek Fire. Sandbags can be used
as an erosion control device. Volunteers are welcome to
assist fire families by pre-filling sandbags for pickup
by local residents.

The empty bags are located in a trash container near the
sand at each site. Remember to bring a shovel to fill the
bags with sand. Sand and bags are available at the following
sites:

Valle Verde Park: parking lot. The park is north of Espola Road;

Lake Poway Road: “overflow” parking lot on the right, approaching the Lake;

Midland Road: east side, across from the Train Barn at Old Poway Park;

Garden Road: south side, across from Garden Road Elementary School.

If you find bags already made, you are welcome to take them.
