Burns Lake Tragedy Fund created

Burns lake has gone through a horrible time with the destruction of the core of the communities industry.   A Fund has been created to collect funds to help people effected by the destruction of the Babine Forest Products mill January 20th this year.   The Burns Lake Tragedy Fund has now been formed as a society.

According to an article in the Burns Lake District News, the fund has $303,000 in the fund now, but they think it will get to $375,000.  

Hampton, partial owner of the mill, has a website up with resources for people in the community.
