We are incredibly thankful for the continued trust that the McDonough County Sheriff’s Office and the Macomb McDonough County 911 Center places in the Colchester Fire Protection District for their annual CPR recertification training. Partnerships like this strengthen our community and ensure that those who serve and protect are prepared to respond when seconds matter most.

At CFPD, we value the strong working relationships we share with the Sheriff’s Office and the 911 Center and appreciate the opportunity to train alongside such dedicated professionals. Together, we remain committed to keeping McDonough County safer through teamwork, preparedness, and service.
