| Volcano, Ca...Amador County’s first Wildfire Preparedness Game shared preparedness resources and built community resilience for more than 50 participants in Volcano on Sunday, May 25. The players, ranging in age from 4 to 92 years, assembled in Volcano Park where they were given a game sheet that sent them to five different activity stations located around the village.
