Community members came together Thursday while fires burned near homes.
Teammates from the Southridge High School varsity girls soccer team worked together to help community members evacuate and keep their homes safe.
While setting up on the soccer field just down the hill from the fire and her home, Danika Gabraith and her family noticed the fire and smoke cloud getting bigger.
She said, "and then we look back and we notice, and we're like oh my gosh that fire is getting really close."
They left the field to head back to their house. She said her dad told her to go with her brother and help the neighbors.
One neighbor, Jeff Hart, said, "Yeah the soccer girls came up here. Our neighbor, and they just helped everybody, put, fill their cars or whatever. They were just very very helpful."
