🚒 EMPLOYEE SPOTLIGHT 🚒

This week's Employee Spotlight shines on Hayden Stevens of the Blackwell Fire Department!

Hayden may be originally from Wagoner, but he says Blackwell has quickly become a place he is proud to call home.

"What I love most is the camaraderie between my coworkers and the citizens of Blackwell. Everyone here has been so kind and welcoming. It truly is a joy to come to work every day."

When he's off duty, Hayden enjoys watching baseball and spending time with friends. And if he could travel anywhere in the world, his destination of choice would be Greece, where he would love to experience the country's rich history and beautiful scenery firsthand.

The City of Blackwell is grateful for Hayden's dedication to serving our community and for the positive attitude he brings to work each day.

Thank you, Hayden, for all that you do! And thank you to all of our City employees and first responders who work tirelessly to keep Blackwell safe, strong, and moving forward. ❤️🚒

CITY SPOTLIGHT: Lucas Durocher!

This week the City of Blackwell's Employee Spotlight is shining on Blackwell Firefighter Lucas Durocher.

Lucas has been with the Blackwell Fire Department for nearly a year, bringing dedication and a strong sense of purpose to his role.

What he values most about his work is the people—both the community he serves and the team he works alongside. Lucas believes that the strength of Blackwell comes from its people, and he takes pride in serving them every day. He has deep respect and trust for his fellow firefighters and genuinely enjoys working as part of such a close-knit department. For him, protecting lives and supporting the community is one of the most meaningful callings there is.

Outside of work, Lucas enjoys spending time with friends and family. Lately, he’s been staying active with workouts, tackling home renovation projects, and enjoying concerts and camping trips.

While he doesn’t claim Blackwell as his hometown, Lucas has lived in several places across Oklahoma, including Luther and Yukon.

If given the chance to travel anywhere, he’d choose Egypt to see the pyramids—ideally during their construction, just to witness the history firsthand.

Rain or shine we’re training!
This weekend we hosted a Vehicle Rescue Operations class presented by Fire Service Training. Much was learned during the training, even with a downpour of rain on Sunday morning. We especially want to thank Strickland Road Service for the training vehicles! We COULD NOT have hosted this class without them.
