Today, we honor and remember the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice while serving our country. Their courage, dedication, and selflessness will never be forgotten.

As we gather with family and friends this Memorial Day, let us take a moment to reflect on the freedoms we enjoy because of those who gave everything in defense of our nation.

From all of us at South Otselic Fire & EMS, we extend our deepest gratitude to our fallen heroes and their families.

We remember. We honor. We thank you. 🇺🇸

DID YOU KNOW? In NYS when you see a vehicle approaching with a BLUE or GREEN Flashing Light in your rear-view mirror it is a VOLUNTEER Firefighter or EMT responding to either a Fire or Ambulance Call. These personnel need to get to the firehouse/EMS station or to the scene as quickly as possible to render the service needed in a timely fashion. PLEASE BE COURTEOUS and when safe to do so, PULL OVER, STOP and LET THEM PASS. Someone is depending on their help and sometimes seconds really do count.

South Otselic Fire & EMS serves residents across South Otselic and surrounding areas, providing fire protection, emergency medical services, and rescue operations. As a volunteer organization, we rely heavily on community partnerships and corporate support to maintain safe, reliable, and effective emergency services.

On the weekend of January 31–February 1, 2026, two members of our department completed the New York State Ice Rescue Technician course through the New York State Division of Homeland Security and Emergency Services (DHSES), Office of Fire Prevention and Control.

As a result, South Otselic Fire & EMS now has two certified Ice Rescue Technicians capable of responding to ice and cold-water emergencies.

Our department is currently fundraising to purchase these specialized Ice/Cold Water Rescue suits that enable our responders to safely perform rescues in these extremely hazardous environments. For a small volunteer agency, the cost of this equipment presents a significant financial challenge, so please consider buying a raffle ticket or two and help us reach our goal.

Buy Your Tickets & The Drawing Will Be Held On
Fish & Heritage Day May 16th 2026.
$5.00 Per Ticket or $20.00 for 5 Tickets.

To Purchase Tickets You Can :

Monday Nights From 6pm Till 7pm,

April 25th @ The Pancake Breakfast,

May 16th @ Fish & Heritage,
