The final Saturday to help feed those in need in Butler County, Kansas. Come join EMS today in El Dorado!

STUFF THE AMBULANCE: ROUND 3!
Augusta, you were absolutely incredible last week! Thanks to your amazing generosity, our second stop for the annual Bradley Brown Food Drive was another massive success. Let’s keep that momentum going!
This Saturday, October 10th, we are bringing the ambulance to the El Dorado Walmart from 12:00 PM to 4:00 PM. Our goal? Fill this rig completely to the roof!
Can we do it, El Dorado?! We know you’ve got a big heart, so swing by during your weekend shopping run and help us pack it full.
WHAT WE NEED MOST:
• Non-perishable food items
• Hygiene products & toiletries
• Paper towels & toilet paper
• Diapers
All donations stay right here in our community, directly benefiting the Butler County Salvation Army. See you there!

CMC is issuing a Product Safety & Inspection Notice for the CSR2 Pulleys.

CMC has become aware of CSR2 Double Pulley (Part # 300342) manufactured in October 2022 that was missing the retaining pin that secures the swivel bolt. Upon further investigation, an additional failure was found on a unit manufactured in July 2021. These failures are expected to be isolated incidents.

Out of an abundance of caution, CMC advises that all users inspect their units, both Double Pulley (Part #: 300342), Single Pulley (Part # 300343), and overall CSR2 Systems (Part # 500102 and Part # 500103), especially those units built in 2023 and earlier.

If you have any CSR2 pulleys or a complete CSR2system, please immediately inspect your devices using the inspection steps included in the Safety & Inspection Notice. To view the notice see link in Bio.
