🚒 CONTINUING OUR COMMITMENT TO FIRE PREVENTION! 🚨

Yesterday, members of the Youngsville Fire Department’s Fire Prevention Bureau and on-duty crews, with the assistance of the Louisiana Office of State Fire Marshal, participated in hands-on training on the proper installation and operation of Lifetone HL Bedside Emergency Alarm Systems.

These specialized devices are designed to provide an additional layer of protection for individuals who are deaf, hard of hearing, or heavy sleepers. The systems recognize the sound of an activated smoke alarm and use a combination of loud, low-frequency alerts, flashing lights, and a vibrating bed shaker to help wake individuals during a fire emergency.

Through this training, our members gained the knowledge and skills needed to properly install these devices and assist residents who may benefit from this potentially life-saving technology.

We would like to thank the Louisiana Office of State Fire Marshal for providing this valuable training and for their continued dedication to fire prevention and public safety.

🔥 At Youngsville Fire Department, our commitment to protecting lives extends beyond emergency response. Through education, prevention, and community partnerships, we continue working to make Youngsville a safer place for everyone.

A shift had a wonderful time visiting BeeHive Homes of Youngsville for National Fire Prevention Week! We enjoyed spending time with the residents, playing Fire Safety Bingo, sharing important fire safety tips, and making some great memories along the way.

Thank you to BeeHive Homes of Youngsville Assisted Living for welcoming us and giving us the opportunity to connect with such a wonderful group of residents. ☺️

Serving our community is about more than fighting fires, it’s about building relationships and making a difference! 🚒❤️

Our thoughts and prayers are with his family along with his brothers and sisters in the fire service. Rest in peace brother.

It is with profound sadness that we announce the loss of one of our own. Jonathan Dunbar tragically passed away early Sunday morning.

Jonathan was a captain on C shift, with 14 dedicated years of service. He brought great knowledge to the fire service, hard work, drive, and earned respect among his crew. His leadership and strong personality will be deeply missed. We will remember Dunbar, as we knew him, from all of his years of service, the brotherhood, and the close relationships formed through time. He will be remembered when we climb upon the truck every shift, and may we honor his service every time.

All of our thoughts and prayers at this time are with his wife, his children, and his family as they navigate through this unimaginable loss. We are deeply saddened at this devastating tragedy. We are grateful for the many years we were given to have known him. May he rest in peace.

The comments have been turned off. It was a small announcement to bring attention to be careful when the ducks are crossing the street. The comments switched to how they taste and cook them and let's run over them.

🚨 Public service announcement! 📣

For those that live in Copper Meadows or drive through it frequently know by now that the neighborhood & its ponds have ducks.

These species of ducks are called Muscovy Ducks.

A few facts about them:

•🦆 Muscovies aren’t technically true ducks; they’re a separate species of waterfowl.
•🔇 They’re generally much quieter than typical ducks. They hiss, huff, and make various soft sounds rather than constantly quacking.
•🏡 They adapt extremely well to suburban neighborhoods.
•🚗 And apparently, they have mastered the art of “I was here first, you go around me.” 😂

So if these are the ducks you’re seeing around Copper Meadows, the lack of response to car horns isn’t particularly surprising. They’re basically the neighborhood’s traffic enforcement officers and they don’t take complaints. 😆

Sincerely,

Your city firefighters who hear the horn blows at all hours of the day/night. 😅
