Remember, today as daylight savings time comes to an end, remember to change the batteries in all of your smoke & carbon monoxide detectors. This is also a great time to test them to ensure they are functioning properly!
According to the US Fire Administration:
-40% of house fires happen in homes without working smoke detectors 🏡
-25% of the home fire deaths result from missing or dead batteries 🪫
-Home fire death rate is 50% higher in homes without working smoke detectors🔥

As October comes to an end, so does Fire Prevention Month. While October is dedicated to raising awareness about fire safety, we want to remind everyone that fire prevention is a year-round responsibility.

Our volunteers have been busy throughout the month having the opportunity to educate students, connect with residents, and share important fire safety messages throughout our community. We would like to thank all of the schools for welcoming us in to help educate our students.

Remember fire safety doesn't stop when the calendar changes! Whether it's testing your smoke and carbon monoxide alarms, replacing batteries twice a year, practicing your family's home escape plan, being mindful of cooking and heating equipment, or safely charging lithium-ion batteries, the small steps we take every day can help prevent emergencies and save lives.

We want to thank our residents, schools, community partners, and everyone who helped make Fire Prevention Month a success!

9-22-26 Tonight SFD drilled on using a variety of extrication tools, stabilization equipment, and techniques to stabilize vehicles and extricate simulated patients.

Vehicles were staged in various positions including being overturned to simulate real world incidents.

Training like this helps our firefighters keep their skills sharp, stay familiar with our equipment, and remain prepared to respond whenever needed.

A big thank you to the Big Junkyard for donating the vehicles and supporting the training of our firefighters! Having vehicles to practice on gives our firefighters valuable real-world training experience. We truly appreciate this partnership and your commitment to our department and community.
