Great job today!

We had some awesome visitors today from local fire departments doing the 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb challenge that honors the 343 firefighters that lost their lives in the terrorist attacks on 9/11. 110 flights of stairs were done in full gear to symbolize their sacrifice. We were honored to have them use our gym to complete this challenge.

Burn ban in effect

Burn Ban in Effect — September 5 through September 8

A burn ban is effective immediately for the unincorporated areas of Crawford County and will remain in place until 8:30 AM Tuesday, September 8.

While the Grassland Fire Danger Index is currently moderate, extreme heat and dry conditions can cause fires to burn more intensely and become harder to control. These conditions also place additional stress on firefighters and emergency responders working in already dangerous heat.

This burn ban is being issued for the safety of our communities and responders.

Stay informed:

• Sign up for Burn Ban Alerts through Genasys
• Call 620-724-6270

While out on the town doing some district study and pre planning Lucas and Beau found the perfect spot to get a snack. Not sure who was more excited them or this little guy. If you're out and see him stop by and get some chips.

As today is national volunteer firefighter recognition day I have to take a second and say just how thankful I am for each and every one of our members. Each one of them bring something special to our table and that helps make us the department that we are. Every day our members strive to not just protect but to be of service to our community. I am proud to have such an amazing crew. Thank every one of you for your dedication to this department and the people we serve.
