We’re grateful for the local businesses and neighbors who continually find ways to support our community and its first responders.

A special thank you to our friends at Hwy 55 Burgers Shakes & Fries - Lenoir, NC, for their kindness and encouragement this week. We appreciate the many ways they show up for schools, nonprofits, first responders, and families throughout our area.

Strong communities are built through relationships like these, and we’re thankful to have such wonderful community partners here in Yadkin Valley. β€οΈπŸš’

πŸ›΄πŸ”‹ For tools and rides, charge outside when possible.
Larger lithium-ion batteries β€” like those in e-bikes, scooters and power tools β€” store more energy and can create a fast-growing fire if they fail.

When possible, charge them outside, keep them away from exits, and never block an escape route while charging.

Fire Prevention Week may be wrapping up, but these are good habits to keep all year long.

🚨 Feels hot? Stop using it.

Stop using a device right away if the battery feels unusually warm, smells strange, makes popping noises, changes shape or color, or starts smoking.

If it is safe to do so, move the device away from anything that can catch fire. A damaged battery can overheat and start a fire.

πŸ”Œ Fully charged? Time to unplug.

Once your device is fully charged, unplug it. Leaving it connected longer than needed can increase heat and put extra stress on the battery.

One small habit can make a big difference.

πŸ”‹ Soft surface? Hard pass.

Charge phones, tablets, game controllers and other devices on a hard, flat surface like a table, desk or floor.

Beds, couches, and pillows can trap heat and block airflow, increasing the chance that a battery overheats.

πŸš’πŸ”₯ What a great day at Happy Valley School!

We had a blast spending time with the students, talking fire prevention, showing off some equipment, and working alongside some of the best community partners around.

A big thank you to Happy Valley School, Patterson Fire / Rescue Department Inc., the N.C. Forest Service, and everyone who helped make the day such a success.

Days like this are a good reminder that fire service is about a lot more than emergency calls β€” it’s also about relationships, education, teamwork, and being part of the community we serve.

We’re proud to be part of it. ❀️
