Thank you so much to our community in support over the past few days in support of our first responders. We are thankful to serve such a wonderful community, which supports us. Whether its lunches, events, or small thank yous, we appreciate every gesture beyond measure.

Whether its trunk or treat or trick or treat we hope to see you all this weekend as Halloween approaches!

It takes a village:

Continuing collaboration with our partners at Statesboro Fire Department, Garden City Fire Rescue, City of Jesup Fire Department, and Effingham County Fire Rescue, your Pooler Fire-Rescue firefighters and instructors are on day 2 of our 40-hour vehicle and machinery extrication technician.

Led by Captain Green, today the class focused on machinery extrication, with lessons on advanced ring removals, impalements, machinery crush injuries, auger injuries, and torch work. With the increasing volume of manufacturing and industrial hazards in the community, this training is vital to learning how to disentangle those who become entrapped as safely as possible and to minimize worsening potential injuries.

Sharing resources and increasing our regional approach to create a more seamless service delivery. This helps every organization improve their skill set and reduce overtime expense through sharing the load, as well as helping to develop professional relationships. This helps all departments when we show up to assist on emergencies that require substantial resources such as technical rescues and building fires.

Keep up the strong work class!

Late Post:

This past Friday and Saturday (October 23rd & 24th, 2026) your C-Shift Pooler Fire-Rescue Firefighters were dispatched to two separate accidents with entrapment.

The first occurred on Friday evening in the area of E US Highway 80 and Triplett Park Drive. Companies arrived on scene to find two vehicles involved in a head-on collision. One occupant was found to be in cardiac arrest and quickly extricated, despite efforts of personnel at resuscitation, the patient passed away.

The second occurred Saturday afternoon at the intersection of Outlets Way and Canal Street. The vehicle rolled onto it's side and companies quickly stabilized the vehicle and removed the windshield, allowing the occupant to exit the vehicle.

Our hearts go out to the families impacted by these accidents, especially the family who lost a loved one. As Halloween approaches, we hope you drive safely, look out for Trick-or-Treaters, and enjoy the sights and frights of the season.

This past Saturday (October 17, 2026) your Pooler Fire-Rescue firefighters were dispatched to the 1700 block of Old Quacco Road for a reported structure fire.

Engine 603 and Battalion 601 arrived on scene to find a single story trailer with additions that had no conditions evident on arrival. Upon investigation, it was determined that there was light smoke showing and a small amount of fire working between the walls, ceiling, and roof near the C/D corner of the occupancy. A working fire was declared, and Truck 601 and Engine 601 assisted with gaining access to the fire, which proved difficult due to its location at the joint of the original and addition of the structure. Truck 602 and Engine E604 assisted with manpower on scene.

The fire was knocked down, and overhaul was completed. The cause of the fire is under investigation.

Resources on scene: Engines 603, 601, 601, Trucks 601, 602, Water Tender 601, Battalion 601, Chiefs 601, 603.

On October 8th, 2026 your Pooler Fire-Rescue firefighters responded to the report of a vehicle accident involving a building with the driver trapped inside. The incident occurred in the 1100 block of South Rogers Street. Crews arrived to find a sedan that crashed into the building trapping the driver and several dogs inside their kennels. Crews worked to remove debris and gain access to the driver and the dogs. The driver was removed from the vehicle and transported to a nearby hospital. Also 13 dogs were removed from the building. Great job by all of our personnel.

Units operating on scene: Chief 601, Chief 602, BC 601, T601, R601, T602, E601, and E604

September 2026 Run Stats,

Pooler Fire-Rescue is continuing its trend of over 500 calls monthly through September, and October is off to a busy start as well. We are still on pace to be busier than 2025, with a current call volume increase of 6.39% year-to-date.

In the second picture we have company responses, and if you compare September to August, you'll see that Rescue 601 lost calls. That's not an accident, these numbers are adjusted to measure responses, not dispatches.

Some resources are cross-staffed (more specifically Rescue 601 with Truck 601 and Engine 602 with Truck 602) where the firefighters are assigned two vehicles and respond in one or the other. Depending on the call type, one resource may be dispatched. However, whether it is due to the call type, specific details pertaining to the incident, or being in the other apparatus already, the vehicle dispatched did not respond, the other vehicle was taken in its stead.

We have removed instances where this apparatus was dispatched and did not respond, which is why the numbers are different.

As always, we are here and ready to help when you need us most! With fire safety month here, don't forget to practice your exit plan, change the batteries in your smoke detectors and make sure they are within the 10 year life span, and close the doors to bedrooms when you sleep to help keep your families safe in the event of a fire!

Thanks to Two Addison Place for allowing our personnel to conduct training at their apartment complex today. This type of training is crucial for our personnel to ensure they are ready when an emergency arises.
