Rain or shine, the last day of school is a reason to celebrate!
Today, Allendale Fire Department helped send students off into summer break with a traditional bus spray-down. Even though Mother Nature brought plenty of rain of her own, we couldn't pass up the opportunity to continue the tradition and help make the last day of school a little more memorable.
We hope all of the students, teachers, and staff have a safe, fun, and relaxing summer. Congratulations on another successful school year!
Have a great summer, Allendale!

During the early morning hours, Your Allendale Fire Department responded to assist the Wright Tallmadge Fire Department with a structure fire alongside multiple neighboring departments. Thankfully, all occupants were able to safely make it out of the home.

This fire serves as an important reminder of a simple but life-saving fire safety habit: sleep with your bedroom doors closed.

As seen in these photos, the fire heavily damaged parts of the home, while rooms protected by closed doors remained mostly intact. A closed door can help slow the spread of fire, heat, and toxic smoke, giving you and your family valuable extra time to escape safely.

Closing bedroom doors at night may only take a second, but it could make the difference between life and death during a house fire.

This incident also highlights the importance of strong mutual aid partnerships. Departments from across the area worked together to quickly bring the fire under control and keep everyone safe.

Please take a moment tonight to check your smoke alarms and close your bedroom doors before going to sleep. Stay safe.

We would like to thank Allendales Fire Chief 190 for his heroic efforts this evening. While driving through our area, he spotted a fully involved chicken coop fire.🔥 Thanks to his quick reaction time we were able to quickly arrive on scene and were able to keep the fire contained to just the chicken coop!

We are also proud to report that no chickens were harmed during the fire!
