Over the last 6 months, the Baltic Fire Engine Co. #1 has added 4 new members to the department. In today’s volunteer fire service climate, that matters more than most people realize.

Departments across Connecticut are being pushed harder than ever to maintain coverage with fewer members and very little outside support. Despite those challenges, our officers continue to work on systems that strengthens our response that provides the Town of Sprague with effective and reliable emergency services.

At the same time, we’ve continued investing heavily into training and development for our membership.

Recently:
• 2 probationary members completed an EMT course
• Another member is attending a Q-Endorsement course (apparatus driver endorsement)
• Additional department training has been conducted regularly

These members are already putting in the work required to serve our residents with the standard of service they deserve.

Join your fellow neighbors who have recently made the leap into helping their community.

With warmer weather upon us, our members are taking full advantage and training as much as possible to perfect their craft.

Over the last week, members trained on:
- Hose advancement and flowing
- Live burn evolutions with Lisbon Fire Department
- Ladder familiarization and confidence

In the worst moments of someone’s life, when fear and uncertainty take over, there’s always a calm voice on the other end of the line.

Before the sirens. Before the lights. Before we even get the call.

That voice belongs to a dispatcher.

This week, we recognize the professionals behind the scenes who make everything we do possible.

Quinebaug Valley Emergency Communications (QVEC) dispatchers are there 24/7—guiding callers, coordinating responders, and making sure help gets where it’s needed.

From all of us at Baltic Fire Department—thank you for your dedication, your professionalism, and your unwavering support.

Happy National Telecommunicators Week.

Even on non-training days our members are still putting in the work!

Asst. Chief Ouimette and Lieutenant Genest guided 2 new probationary members through SCBA confidence training ahead of a scheduled live burn this weekend.

The goal of this training is to prepare our new members for the possible fatigue associated with interior firefighting while wearing an SCBA.
