Remember to give space for roadside workers! 🚗

☀️ Keep your summer on track — and protect those who protect us. Whether you're heading out for a road trip or just running errands, remember to slow down and move over when you pass an emergency scene.

Rain showers moved through during last night's training, throwing a rainbow across the training ground. 🌈 Our firefighters spent the evening at FVTC Public Safety Training conducting vehicle fire training drills. Thank you to everyone who dedicated another evening to learning, improving, and preparing to respond when the call comes in! 🚗🔥 🚒

This afternoon's storm may bring a chance of a tornado. This is a good time to refresh your plan for where you'll go if severe weather hits! Ideally, find a safe shelter in an interior room on the lowest floor of a sturdy building. 🌪

⛈️ Stay weather aware this afternoon! The storm may bring damaging wind and hail to parts of the area

Thunderstorms will rapidly spread north and east this afternoon, some potentially severe. Damaging winds to 70 mph, large hail and a tornado or two may occur. Make sure you have a safe shelter as storms approach.

It's CPR Week! ❤️ Are you ready to jump into action?

When bystanders start CPR before EMS arrives, it can increase the patient's chance of survival.
With hands-only CPR, there are just 2 steps:
🩷 Check the patient's responsiveness - no pulse or breathing? Call 911!
🩷 With the patient laying on their back on a hard surface, push down quickly on the center of their chest, both hands. You want to push about 2" deep, allowing it all the way back up before you push again. Push 100-120 times a minute - to the tune of Stayin' Alive, or Baby Shark! 🎶

Keep going until more help arrives! 💜🚑🚒🚓

We had a great time today at Fox Crossing Fire Department for a sensory-friendly safety event with SOAR Fox Cities, Inc.! We brought Rescue 42 out with our grass rig and talked about our response to wildland fires and more. Thanks for the invite! 🚒

This week, members of our crew, along with Fire Catt, tested 9000' of fire hose! Every section checked, every connection verified. This is the kind of behind-the-scenes work that keeps our equipment reliable and ready for the next call! Thanks to those who gave up their time to help 🚒
