Red Cross Operating Five Shelters for Detwiler Fire Evacuees

Sacramento, CA...The Red Cross shelter at Groveland Community Hall is now closed. Evacuees who stayed at the Groveland facility have been relocated to the Mother Lode Fairgrounds. New evacuees in the area are encouraged to go to the fairgrounds for assistance. The American Red Cross is operating the following shelter locations for residents impacted by the Detwiler Fire:

EV Free Church, 50443 High School Road, Oakhurst, CA 93644
Sierra Vista Presbyterian Church, 39696 Highway 41, Oakhurst, CA 93644
Mountain Christian Center, 40299 Highway 49, Oakhurst, CA 93644
Cesar Chavez Junior High, 161 S. Plainsburg Road, Planada, CA 95365
Mother Lode Fairgrounds, 220 Southgate Drive, Sonora, CA 95370




Volunteers are on hand at each location to provide lodging, meals, health services and comfort for affected residents. Veterinary services are available for animals as well.

The Red Cross urges everyone to follow evacuation orders from local law enforcement and have an emergency kit ready to go for any disaster including wildfires. Visit http://www.redcross.org/prepare/disaster/wildfire to learn more.
