Snakes are typically active when the weather is warmer. Please remember these safety tips while outdoors:

Never pick up or attempt to move a snake.
Never place your hands, arms, feet or legs where you can’t see them when outdoors.
Wear leather gloves if you have to handle debris, logs, rocks and other objects where a snake could be hiding.
Always wear closed shoes and long pants when walking through the woods or places where you won’t have clear views of where you step.

Prescribed Burn in the Sea Pines Forest Preserve Scheduled for 4/21

Please be aware that a prescribed burn is scheduled to take place Friday, April 21st, in the Sea Pines Forest Preserve in proximity to Wood Duck Pond. Click here to view a map of The Sea Pines Forest Preserve.

If weather conditions are favorable, the prescribed burn will begin between 10 AM - noon and will conclude late afternoon. The area of the prescribed burn does not contain public access, so the Forest Preserve will remain open. There is a possibility that parts of the community may be able to see or smell smoke during the active burn and potentially into the night as mop up operations are conducted.

As a reminder, prescribed burns mimic natural wildfires, but are controlled to occur at the right place and right time. Conducting prescribed burns will help maintain a diverse forest understory and further protect the ecosystem of the Forest Preserve.

For more information, please visit www.seapinesliving.com/prescribedburn

For questions, please contact David Henderson, Director of Special Projects and Operations at wildlife@csaseapines.com
