๐Ÿง‘โ€๐Ÿš’ ๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐Ÿš’ Congratulations to these seven firefighters from Spearfish Fire Department and Whitewood. Today they completed practical testing for their state certification. Next month they will take part in a live fire training that will be the final task in their certification. They have each invested well over 120 hours in classroom and hands on training as well as countless hours of studying to get to this point. ๐Ÿš’ ๐Ÿ”ฅReese Ribordy Jameson Tebben

Tip Tuesday!!

A fire extinguisher can save lives โ€” but only when used correctly. ๐Ÿšจ

Common mistakes people make:
โŒ Waiting too long before using it
โŒ Standing too close or too far to the fire
โŒ Spraying the flames instead of the base
โŒ Using the wrong extinguisher type for electrical or fuel fires
โŒ Stopping too fast (Ensure the fire is completely off before stopping)
โŒ Forgetting regular servicing and pressure checks

Remember: PASS method saves the day โ€” Pull, Aim, Squeeze, Sweep. ๐Ÿ”ฅ๐Ÿงฏ
Safety is not just owning a fire extinguisherโ€ฆ itโ€™s knowing how to use it when seconds matter.

Yesterday at approximately 5:50pm we got paged out to Sturgis for mutual aid. Lots of neighboring departments showed up to tackle this fire ๐Ÿ”ฅ. With these dry and windy conditions things can spread very quickly.
