🚒🔥 Fire Prevention Month🔥🚒
The Payette Fire Department had the pleasure of visiting Payette Primary School during Fire Prevention Month! Our firefighters enjoyed spending time with the students, teaching important fire safety lessons, and helping them learn how to stay safe in an emergency. We were able to reach approximately 500 kids to teach these important skills.
Educating children about fire safety is an important part of preventing fires and keeping our community safe. We appreciate the opportunity to connect with our local students and help them build life-saving knowledge at an early age.
A big thank you to Payette Primary School for welcoming us and helping us spread the word about fire safety! ❤️🚒

🚒 Interagency Cooperation and Teamwork
The Payette Fire Department would like to extend our sincere appreciation to Treasure Valley Paramedics and Life Flight for assisting the New Plymouth and Payette agencies during an emergency call on Little Willow Road.
Cooperation and mutual support between emergency response agencies are essential to providing effective service to our communities. We appreciate Treasure Valley Paramedics’ willingness to assist and the continued partnership between our local emergency responders.
When agencies work together, our communities are better served. Thank you to everyone involved for your dedication, professionalism, and commitment to helping others.
