Last week was Fire Prevention Week! If you hear sirens around town this morning, it’s just because our annual fire station experience for elementary students was postponed last week due to scheduling conflicts. Be safe and remember, Charge into Fire Safety!

POTENTIAL FLOODING – SAUNDERS COUNTY

Residents and motorists should remain alert for the potential for flooding across Saunders County tonight and throughout the day Thursday.

Additional rainfall on already saturated ground may cause water levels to rise quickly in creeks, streams, drainage areas and other low-lying locations. As conditions change, some roads may become flooded or impassable.

Please use extra caution in our regular trouble spots, including low-water crossings, roads near creeks and drainage areas, and other locations that have historically experienced flooding.

Most importantly, DO NOT drive around road closure signs, barricades or emergency vehicles. If a road is closed, it is closed for a reason. Never attempt to drive through floodwater, even if the water appears shallow or you are familiar with the roadway.

Please follow all directions from law enforcement, fire departments, emergency management, highway departments and other first responders. Road conditions can change quickly, especially after dark when flooded roadways can be difficult to see.

Allow extra time for travel, consider alternate routes and continue to monitor weather and road conditions throughout tonight and Thursday.

The Yutan Volunteer Fire Department is deeply saddened to announce the death of Wendall D Pascarelli.
Wendall D Pascarelli died of complications from firefighting related cancer. A veteran member of the department, past chief and fire board president, he is survived by his family.
With profound sorrow, we grieve the loss of Wendall. He was a cornerstone of our community who gave over 35 years of unwavering dedication to our fire station and neighbors.

His legacy of protection, guidance, and selfless sacrifice is woven into the very fabric of our community. We honor his extraordinary lifetime of duty, knowing his impact will be felt for generations to come. — Matt Thompson, Chief, Yutan Volunteer Fire Department.

🛴 🚴‍♀️ Recently, we had the opportunity to educate K–6th grade students at our elementary school on safe scooter and bicycle operation. We were also fortunate to provide helmets for students to check out and take home if they did not already have one that properly fit.

We have seen one too many close calls in our community, and we hope the children in our community now have both the knowledge and equipment needed to safely enjoy all their wheels this summer!

A special thank you to Children's Nebraska Injury Prevention Program for their continued partnership and for providing helmets for our students, and to Yutan Public Schools for prioritizing student safety!

Have a safe, fun, and active summer! ☀️🕶️
