Monday was a day that showed just how strong our community is when we come together. With the help of our neighboring agencies and departments, the fire was able to be contained to one building, preventing it from spreading to adjacent structures. Special thanks goes out to our automatic and mutual aid departments that assisted us. You guys are always top notch. We also want to recognize our FCPD officers and EMS units for the outstanding work you do alongside us. And finally, to our group of outstanding firefighters at the FCFR - GREAT WORK! You represented our community with tremendous courage and dedication. We are proud of each and every one of you.

This week, NC OSFM premiered a powerful documentary featuring Ginger Peters, whose life was forever changed by a sparkler injury. Her story is a powerful reminder that sparklers burn at more than 2,000 degrees and can cause devastating injuries in seconds.

As you celebrate Independence Day this weekend, please take the time to educate yourself on firework and sparkler safety!
