Rain or shine, we will be there.

$5 meals
Hotdog or Coneydog, chips and drink

Additional dog for $2

All proceeds go to the BMRT Squad Association, for the purchase of Station items and comforts, that are nice to have, but can't be justified for using taxpayer funds

Stop on by next weekend while hitting the Belle Center Memorial Weekend Yard Sales.

Saturday 10a-2p BMRT will be selling Hotdogs, chips, and drinks outside the Station.

We had a blast last year, so we figured we'd bring it back.

All proceeds go to the BMRT Squad Association

Meet BMRTs newest Full Time Employee Amy McElfresh. She joined BMRT in Dec of 2024, after obtaining her EMT Basic Certification, and also works at BKP Ambulance District.

While she herself is new(ish) to the field, her family ties to the First Responder World are deep, as both her parents work in EMS and the Fire Service.

We are proud to have her, and start Amy on the path of a long and successful career!

Our next Spotlight focuses on another long standing pillar of the community and Full-Time Employee Chris Bair. The big news for her this year is her retirement from Teaching at Ben Logan Schools.
But don't think she's done teaching. As an EMS Instructor, she still teaches Continuing Education to the BMRT employees, as well as helping guide and mentor the new EMTs, for many of whom BMRT is their first paid EMS position. Chris also teaches part of the EMS 1program at Apollo Career Center.
Thank you, Chris for all that you do!
