🚒 BHFD MEMBER SPOTLIGHT: Meet Matt Bowman!

What's the most important lesson Matt has learned in his 12 years in the fire service? "Never assume you know what's behind any door." 🚪

Around the Black Hawk Fire Department, Matt is our go-to medical and EMS guru. Whether he's responding to a call, helping with training, or sharing his knowledge around the station, he's always ready to lend a hand.

But there's more to Matt than firefighting! When he's not on duty, you'll find him running, fishing, or enjoying the outdoors. And his favorite movie? The Greasy Strangler - because you just can’t beat its excessive greasiness.

🎥 Get to know Matt in our latest Member Spotlight and find out what keeps him passionate about fire service after 12 years!
