Come see us on Halloween!! The fire station will be open to all per usual for trick or treating, but this year stop and have a chat and warm up with coffee or a hot dog. We would love to hear from the community any ideas on how to improve or what we can do to recruit members

Good news, the statewide ban on debris burning has been lifted. Please resume submitting permits for debris burning so the warden can make a determination based on location and material. Thank you

I know we got some much needed rain yesterday. However, the burn ban has NOT been lifted!! We still are in a severe drought and material will dry out very quickly. Please refrain from debris burning. Thank you
