Between working the fields, caring for livestock, and answering the call when our community needs them, these members wear many hats! We appreciate the time, dedication, and sacrifices they make both on the farm and with AFD!

🔥 Fire Prevention Tip: Stay Safe as the Weather Gets Colder! 🏠

As you reach for space heaters to stay warm, remember a few important safety tips:

♨️ Keep space heaters at least 3 feet away from anything that can burn, including furniture, curtains, and blankets.

🔌 Plug space heaters directly into a wall outlet — never into a power strip or surge protector.

⚡ Avoid overloading surge strips and outlets with too many devices. Overloaded circuits can overheat and cause a fire.

🚫 Turn off space heaters when leaving the room or going to bed.

❤️ A few simple precautions can help keep your family and home safe this season!

Stay warm, stay safe, and prevent fires! 🚒

🚒🔥 We LOVE teaching fire prevention to our elementary students! Seeing their excitement, curiosity, and smiles makes it so much fun. We also enjoyed the conversations while eating lunch with the students.

Teaching fire safety today helps build safer communities tomorrow! 🧯👩‍🚒👨‍🚒

➡️ Special shout out to Mark, Mike, Nate, Dave & Tim for taking the day off work to teach our youth about fire safety.
