🔥With the majority of our firefighters in Cook County being volunteers, we wanted to share some facts about volunteers.

👉🏼There are approximately 635,100 volunteer firefighters in the US.
👉🏼82% of all fire departments are volunteer or mostly volunteer departments. 69.8% are entirely volunteer.
👉🏼Volunteers represent 62-65% of total US volunteers.

Whether you are a paid firefighter or volunteer, today is the day to recognize and THANK YOU for the dedication, hard work, training and sacrifices you all have given. Cook County is blessed to have the amazing group of men and women firefighters we have!

🔥 Extreme Drought. High Fire Danger. No Exceptions.

Georgia is facing severe drought conditions, and wildfire risk is at a critical level. Right now, it only takes one spark to start a fast-moving, dangerous wildfire.

This is not the time for “safe enough.” Even everyday activities can have serious consequences in these conditions.

⚠️ What to remember:
➡️ There is no safe outdoor burning right now
➡️ Anything that creates a spark can ignite a wildfire
➡️ Fires can spread quickly and unpredictably in dry conditions

Our firefighters are responding to a high number of wildfires across the state—and we need everyone’s help to prevent the next one.

Every spark matters. Every decision matters.

Fighting fire. Protecting forests. Serving Georgia.
