One week from today, Brighton Fire Rescue is hosting a Halloween event with a twist...TRUCK-or-Treat!

Join us at our Training Center on Friday, October 23rd, for an evening of Halloween fun, featuring a pop-up haunted house! We'll also have trick-or-treat stations, pumpkins carved by our firefighters for you to judge, and the Dog-N-It Chicago Style food truck on site.

This isn't your typical trunk-or-treat event with rows of cars handing out candy. We're putting our own spin on Halloween, with the haunted house as the main attraction!

We've received a few questions about what ages are appropriate for the haunted house. Since every child has a different comfort level when it comes to spooky experiences, we'll leave that decision up to parents and guardians when they see our setup.

When: Friday, October 23rd, 5:00–7:00 PM
Where: Brighton Fire Training Center
5 S. Firehouse Road, Brighton, CO 80601

Costumes are encouraged, so bring the family and come enjoy some Halloween fun with your local firefighters!

Brighton Fire Rescue crews recently joined Brighton High School, SD27J's medical response team for a cardiac arrest drill focused on what happens before firefighters arrive and the critical handoff to EMS.

The exercise is part of 27J Schools' work toward becoming a safer, better-prepared district through Project ADAM. The national program helps schools prepare for sudden cardiac arrest by developing emergency response plans, training staff in CPR and AED use, making sure AEDs are accessible, and regularly practicing how everyone will respond during a real emergency.

As part of that effort, schools throughout the district will participate in cardiac arrest drills to put their plans and training into practice.

For Brighton Fire, these exercises also give our crews an opportunity to work directly with school response teams and practice the transition from immediate care provided by school staff to the advanced care provided by our firefighters and paramedics.

It’s training we hope is never needed, but preparation can make all the difference when seconds count.

A fire engine can spark a lot of curiosity, and the kids at Brighton Options Homeschool Enrichment Program had plenty of great questions!

One of our crews recently stopped by the program at Harvest Fellowship to spend some time with the students and give them an up-close look at Engine 51. The kids had a chance to check out the equipment, learn a little about what firefighters do, and get their questions answered by the crew.

Thanks to Brighton Options for inviting us out. We always enjoy spending time with the kids in our community!

The North Area Technical Rescue Team led an intensive two-week Heavy Rescue Academy that concluded with trench rescue training.

Trench rescues are among the most dangerous technical rescue operations. A trench collapse can happen without warning, making it critical for rescuers to know how to stabilize the trench, prevent further collapse, and safely reach trapped victims.

The academy gave firefighters an opportunity to develop their skills, work through challenging rescue scenarios, and strengthen teamwork across agencies.

Congratulations to everyone who completed the academy and continues to build the skills needed to respond to these complex emergencies.

Chief Piper’s final Fire Prevention Week tip: Where you charge matters.

Always charge phones, laptops, and other devices on a hard, flat surface like a table, desk, or floor. Beds, couches, blankets, and pillows can trap heat and block airflow around the device, increasing the risk of overheating.

So if you’re thinking about plugging in while relaxing in bed, take Chief Piper’s advice: Hard surface. Soft surface? Hard pass.

Small action. Big impact.

Chief Piper’s next Fire Prevention Week tip is taking us to 30,000 feet: Keep your batteries where you can see them.

When using a portable charger on a plane, keep it with you and in sight, such as on your tray table. Never charge devices in an overhead compartment, and never charge e-cigarettes or vapes while on a plane.

If a battery begins to overheat, smoke, or fail, notify a flight crew member immediately so they can respond quickly.

That’s why Chief Piper is keeping a close eye on his charger.

Small action. Big impact.

Chief Piper’s next Fire Prevention Week tip: Once it’s charged, unplug it.

When your phone, tablet or other device reaches a full charge, disconnect it from the charger. Leaving a device plugged in longer than needed can create extra heat and put added stress on the battery.

See that 100%? That’s Piper’s cue to pull the plug.

Small action. Big impact.

Yesterday afternoon, our crew at Station 52 recognized a young man whose kindness made a difference during a car accident.

Cory was riding his bicycle after school when he witnessed the accident. With the area safe, he checked on two younger children who were unharmed and stayed with them, offering comfort and keeping them entertained while our firefighters cared for the other passengers.

To thank Cory for stepping up, we invited him, his mom, and his younger sister to the station. After a tour, we presented Cory with a Good Citizen Award in the apparatus bay. Our firefighters then showed the family our apparatus, let Cory try on some gear, and gave his little sister a sensory stuffed animal.

The visit wrapped up when the tones dropped, and our crew headed out on a call, giving the family a firsthand look at life in the fire service.

Cory, thank you for looking out for those kids during a scary situation. We're proud to have young people like you in our community.
