SUMMARY:The Grasslands Project & Small Smoke at Blaze Creek
DESCRIPTION:As part of its programming to commemorate Earth Day\, the Old M
 ill Store Museum will be showing the following films on April 26:\n\nThe G
 rasslands Project  - After The Fire (Scott Parker | 2016 | 9 mins)\n\nThi
 s short documentary from The Grasslands Project shows how small rural co
 mmunities rely on volunteer firefighters to handle most emergencies. While
  the Eastend Fire Department responds to its share of barn and grass fires
 \, they are only a call away from tragedy.  Rural first responders are us
 ually first on the scene of grisly farm and motor vehicle accidents\, and 
 in a small community the victims are often friends and family. The toll it
  takes on these volunteers creates its own tragedy.\n\nSmall Smoke At Blaz
 e Creek  (Michael Scott | 1971 | 9 mins)\n\nForest fire in mountainous Br
 itish Columbia\, as experienced by the men who must try to quench it from 
 the air and at close quarters on the ground. Over half of fire outbreaks o
 ccur through carelessness\, and this film affords a close\, vivid view of 
 the result: a whole mountainside turned into a searing\, crackling holocau
 st until nothing remains but gray\, desolate waste--mute reproach to all w
 ho travel or work in the forests.\n\n--\n\nFor more information\, visit th
