🚒🔥 Fire Prevention week🔥🚒

Over the last two days, we had the privilege of teaching the kids from Breckenridge Community Schools about fire prevention and the importance of fire safety! The students got to visit our new fire station, take a tour, and learn valuable lessons that can help keep them and their families safe.

Needless to say, the firefighters enjoyed every minute of it just as much as the kids did! ❤️

We can’t thank our amazing sponsors enough for their continued support in making this annual event possible. Your generosity helps us educate the next generation and make our community a safer place! 🙌 Thanks again Katie Tobias - State Farm Insurance Agent and Invenergy!

Thank you to everyone who helps make this tradition possible! 🚒❤️

At 8:43 AM this morning, we were toned to a commercial fire at Michigan Agriculture Commodities- Ransom road.

Crews arrived on scene to find smoke coming from an undetermined source. Some units climbed the 300’ bins, while others made access in a basement.

We were able to locate the source in the basement and extinguish it.

Thank you to MAC for leading us around and helping us out.

As always, we couldn’t have done this without our mutual aid partner, St. Louis Area Fire Department and the wonderful dispatchers of Gratiot County Central Dispatch & Gratiot Emergency Management.

🚒 Training Night!
This week, our crew worked on double porta-tank drafting, with every firefighter getting hands-on time at the pump panel. Together, we established an impressive 6,000 gallons of standby water, sharpening the skills needed to provide a dependable water supply in rural firefighting operations. Great work by everyone who came out and continues to train hard to serve our community! 💪🔥
