Last week, we had over 100 firefighters from the UK and IRE visit our Training Center. It was amazing to share our training program and swap stories with them. Despite the audience, the recruits did a great job on ladders. Huge thanks to the 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb crew for stopping by.

Today, we celebrate the people who show up, work hard, and make a difference in our community every day.

To those enjoying a well-earned day off, and to those working through the holiday, thank you for all you do!

As you enjoy this Labor Day, please make sure that safety is a part of your plans. Grill responsibly, stay hydrated, buckle up, and never drink and drive.

We hope everyone has a safe and happy Labor Day!

Today, the Cobb Fire family came together for the 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb at Truist Park. Our firefighters climbed 2,000 steps in remembrance of the 343 firefighters who lost their lives on September 11th, 2001. Walking alongside firefighters from the U.K. and our fellow Metro Atlanta departments is a reminder that we all carry the same mission.

A huge thanks to the Terry Farrell Firefighters Fund Georgia Chapter for organizing this amazing event.

Today, over 100 firefighters from the U.K. came to tour our training center and fire stations. They traveled to Atlanta to participate in the 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb at Truist Park. Before tomorrow's climb, today was an amazing opportunity to fellowship with firefighters from abroad. While our uniforms and stations look different, we all carry the same mission.

This morning, members of our department came together with the community to walk in remembrance of September 11, 2001.

The Kiwanis Club of Marietta (GA)‘s 9/11 Field of Flags at Kennesaw Mountain National Battlefield Park serves as a powerful reminder of the 2,977 lives lost that day, including the first responders who made the ultimate sacrifice while answering the call to serve others.

At the end of the walk, the flags are then placed in the field , where you will find one flag for every life lost.

We remember their courage. We honor their sacrifice. And we will never forget.

The Field of Flags will be on display through September 19th

Yesterday, Station 17 was presented with a gracious token of appreciation. Jenna de Bruyn created this amazing memorial plaque to honor their legacy of service to her mother, Charlene Rae Langwald. In the final years of Charlene's beautiful life, the crews at Station 17 were a constant guardian, providing emergency medical help with compassion and understanding. This fire station was the beacon of reassurance Jenna and her family needed in the most difficult moments. Jenna hopes the plaque will remind the firefighters of their immeasurable impact on the community.

Lt. Arnold is one of the firefighters that helped Charlene in her time of need. He represents his crew from 2022 that served Jenna's family in those crucial years.

A huge thanks to Chick-fil-a at Brookstone for providing meals to celebrate the occasion!

Dorm room set up? Check.
Class schedule? Check.
Fire safety? Definitely worth adding to the list.

As college students settle in for the semester, remember the basics: avoid overloading outlets, charge devices on hard surfaces, keep exits clear, and know at least two ways out.

And when it’s time to call it a night, close before you doze. A closed door can help slow the spread of smoke, heat, and fire and give you valuable time to escape.

Study hard. Have fun. Stay safe!

Cobb Fire is wishing all of our college students a great school year!
