NEW INFORMATION ABOUT THE FIRES
Boise District BLM Fire Crews Continue To Work Fires
Multiple ground and aerial resources are continuing to work fires that started yesterday.
South Slope Fire, 3 miles south of Emmett, ID was burning in grass and brush last night and is estimated to be 150 acres on both private and BLM lands. This fire is expected to be contained at 2:00 this afternoon and an estimated control time this evening at 9:00.
MM43HWY52 Fire, 6 miles north of Emmett, ID, is estimated at over 10,000 acres with the increase in acreage due to high winds, steep rugged terrain, and a burnout operation last night. The fire is burning on both private and BLM lands. Aerial resources continue to assist the resources on the ground with bucket drops and retardant. Structure protection engines are in place around multiple structures and outbuildings to safeguard these structures. Portion of Highway 52 was closed late last night but is now open again.
Resources working the fire consist of handcrews, engines, dozers, water tenders, helicopters and air tankers.
All three fires are human-caused and still under investigation. Please be cautious when recreating on public lands with weather patterns trending into the triple digits.

OUR DEEPEST SYMPATHY

LOOKING FOR HOST FAMILIES
Hello,
I am a local coordinator for ETC International Exchange Student Program. Emmett High School has invited us to place two exchange students at the school for the academic year beginning in August. We are seeking host families for them. I would appreciate it if you would mention the need in the community newsletter.
We are particularly interested in placing Anna, a girl from Sweden, who loves horses and riding. She plans to become a doctor. She also says she likes to be around younger children and loves tennis and skiing. Her favorite subjects in school are math, biology and physics.
In addition to Anna, we have many other students from most countries in Europe and from Brazil, Mexico, China, Korea, Japan, Thailand and other countries. All have been screened for academic ability and maturity.
Host families are volunteers who provide room and board and exposure to life in America. Students have insurance and spending money. Couples with and without children at home and single women are encouraged to host.
If you know of someone who might be interested in expanding their family's cultural awareness while making a lifelong friend and impacting a student's life, I would like to hear from them; my contact information is below. This is a time sensitive need.
I have attached information about hosting that can be shared with anyone interested.
Thank you,
Glenna Tooman
