Become Involved

We invite everyone with an interest in prescribed burning to join the SCTPBA. It’s a great way to learn about the science and art of using fire to meet your objectives, share your experiences with other landowners, and learn from others.

The SCTPBA has two categories of volunteers–Members and Friends. What’s the difference?

Members:

  • Pay annual dues,
  • Meet the first requirement to have SCTPBA volunteers help with a burn on their property,
  • Have a vote on matters presented to the membership at the annual meeting,
  • Are informed of training opportunities,
  • Receive notice of upcoming burns, and
  • Volunteer on prescribed burns.

Whether you’re interested in having SCTPBA volunteers help with a prescribed burn on your place or you simply want to learn about prescribed burning, joining the SCTPBA is a great first step. You will be informed of upcoming training opportunities, receive news of interest to the Association’s members, and receive notice of upcoming prescribed burns. The more you participate, the more you learn!
