Firewood Advisory

Transported Firewood Prohibited!

            The Bourne Recreation Authority and The Bourne Scenic Park would like for all campers to be aware that beginning in the 2011 Camping Season, no one is permitted to transport there own Fire Wood into or out of Bourne Scenic Park.

            In cooperation with The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers we ask that you be aware of this potentially serious threat to our Nation’s forest. The Asian Longhorn Beetle and the Emerald Ash Borer are just some the insects that could potentially be transported via infested wood products.
