Back Mountain Regional Fire & EMS, Dallas PA

Summer is here! PA Emergency Management Agency wants to remind everyone on the signs to look for to stay safe and healthy in this heat!

One of the first signs of heat illness is muscle cramps, so if you start cramping up it's time to act:

— Get someplace cooler, stat ☃️
— Remove excess clothing 👋
— Drink a cool sports drink 🧃
— Avoid caffeine/alcohol 🚫🍸

Seek medical help if your cramps don't go away in an hour, you have heart problems, or you are on a low-sodium diet.

At the recent Lake-Lehman School Board meeting, Back Mountain Regional Fire & EMS junior firefighters Ben Figura and Logan Wilhelm were recognized alongside fellow junior members from Noxen Volunteer Fire Company, Harveys Lake Volunteer Fire Company, and Idetown Volunteer Fire Company.

Throughout the school year, these dedicated young firefighters played an important role in supporting school safety initiatives and emergency drills. Their willingness to serve and contribute demonstrates a strong commitment to both their departments and the broader community.

Thank you, Ben and Logan, and all of the junior firefighters, for the many ways you give back. Your dedication, teamwork, and sense of responsibility are making a real difference.

Your leadership at such a young age is truly outstanding, and our community is fortunate to have you.
