Nativity Lighting


On Saturday, November 25 Pine Valley residents gathered east of the old church to watch the lighting of the nativity and surrounding area. There were somewhere around a hundred people in attendance. We heard some comments from Bob Dalley, sang Christmas carols led by Vicky Hickman and then listened to a beautiful rendition of “Oh Holy Night” by Marlie Root. As she sung about the stars brightly gleaming, the lights were turned on. It was such a beautiful way to introduce the Christmas season.

Planned Power Outage, October 10 at 9:00

There will be a scheduled power outage for Pine Valley on October 10th at 9 a.m. to complete the work on the new line that has been built in Pinto Canyon.  The estimated time for the outage will be 4-5 hours.
Since the June Grass Valley/ Pinto Canyon fire impacting many pole structures and power lines, Dixie has been working very hard to replace much of the destroyed and other structures with significantly improved facilities that benefit all of the Pine Valley area.

September 24--first snow of the season

Below are some videos sent by Bevan Killpack that demonstrate the benefits of fuel reduction to save homes during a wildfire event:
