    I am a senior at chaparral high school in Temecula, CA, our school as well as Temecula Valley are shelters for those who had to evacuate from their homes in Fallbrook. Watching the news for hours and hours and not seeing anything being covered on their home is infuriating!!! People need to know what is happeneing and not everyone has access to the internet. We need to know what they are doing to the fire and not where the SD Chargers are practicing!!!! Get something about their homes on the news and help these people out.
