On the second Monday of each month, firefighters gather for monthly training. This evening, firefighters practiced full “roll-up drills,” conducting simultaneous simulated fire suppression, search and rescue, and water supply operations. This type of training is critical to keeping firefighters ready to answer the call.

Mondays aren’t the only day firefighters train. Additional trainings are often scheduled throughout the month as well. This year alone, St. Albans firefighters have collectively completed over 350 hours of training to keep their skills sharp and continue learning new ones.

In 2024, the St. Albans Fire Department was awarded a grant to enhance the safety of our snowmobile trails through improved marking and mapping. The Fire Department and the Sno-Devils Snowmobile Club worked together to successfully complete this project.

This past winter, the Sno-Devils installed new trail signs at key intersections. Each sign includes a unique marker that corresponds with our trail maps and identifies the nearest plowed road. The Fire Department now has full access to these maps, which are also integrated into our call mapping software to improve emergency response.

We would like to thank the Sno-Devils for their partnership and hard work in making this project a success.

This project was made possible through a grant from Skowhegan Savings bank. It will undoubtedly improve safety for all who use the trail system.

The St. Albans Fire Department is happy to share an update on our water and ice rescue capabilities.

Over the past four years, the department has budgeted, secured grants, and purchased water and ice rescue equipment to address the risks posed by the many local streams, rivers, lakes, and ponds in our area.

Our newest additions include an inflatable rescue craft and dry suits, allowing us to respond to ice, open water, and floodwater rescues year-round.

This equipment is now in service, and many of our members are already trained in its use. It is also available to assist our mutual aid partners when requested.

Here are a few simple tips:
• Use large, reflective numbers that are easy to read from the street
• Place your numbers on your home or mailbox, facing the road. Consider making it visible from both directions.
• Keep them clear of snow, trees, and obstructions year-round
