Cash-strapped Oregon Department of Forestry to treat employees to training session at luxury resort

This month, the Oregon Department of Forestry intends to teach roughly 20 staff members at an all-inclusive resort outside of Bend that promotes itself as a picturesque luxury ranch.

The three-day, two-night event at Brasada Ranch comes after the agency requested millions of dollars in emergency funds from the Legislature last month to help pay for the expenses of battling the record-breaking wildfires of the previous year.
