Pilot Project to Reduce Community Fire Risks
October 8, 2021
Goats to graze difficult to maintain areas
The Town of Magrath is conducting a pilot project to lower the grass fire risks to the community. Working within town properties and in cooperation with other landowners the Town has contracted a local rancher to use goats to graze areas that are difficult to maintain along the Pothole Creek including along the trail. The hoped outcome is to reduce the dead grass fuel load that would be available for an event in the dry months of the year and have it able to grow back as spring arrives. We ask that you please ensure all dogs are kept on leashes when walking along the trail and in other areas where signs indicate the goats are in the area.
Magrath Days represent a time where we all reflect about how our community is growing and to look hopefully into the future. This special video was created to commemorate that endless spirit. From our pioneering roots to the vibrant community we are today, this milestone is a tribute to the people, places, and stories that have shaped our town across generations. A place where kids can be kids. A place for learning, working, and thriving. A place where community comes first. Whether you were born here, moved here, or just love visiting, this is your story of growing with us too.
Please note that due to Magrath Days, the Transfer Station will be CLOSED on Saturday, July 26. Instead, it will be OPEN on Friday, July 25 from 9:00 AM to 6:00 PM. Thank you for your understanding, and enjoy the festivities!
