PBA

In the near-decade since Wimberley launched the North Carolina Sandhills Prescribed Burn Association, or PBA, he has worked with some 700 landowners.

Steed worked with Wimberley and the Sandhills PBA before leading the Cultural Burn Association.

Wimberley started his PBA informally, by inviting neighbors over to burn his land; “kind of an old-school thing,” he said.

There’s even a late cameo by PBA legend Pete Weber.

“I never played in the PBA like I wanted, but I ended up getting to share the game in a different way,” Spoelstra said.
