This is a FREE community event put on by EWU's Office of Community Engagement to honor the sacrifices that so many did that day 25 years ago. Participants are invited to do the stair climb challenge or take a walk/jog/run around the track symbolizing the Tunnel to Towers distance.

GETTING SOME WORK IN!
Some of our Cheney personnel have been getting some wildland experience in the last couple of days on the Blyton Landing Fire down in Whitman County. This has been a good learning experience working alongside some partners from Stevens County and South Pend Oreille Fire & Rescue. Forward progression of the fire was stopped early this morning.

🗳️ EMS LEVY ON THE NOVEMBER BALLOT

SCFD3 will have an Emergency Medical Services (EMS) levy on the November 3, 2026 ballot.

💲 WHAT WOULD IT COST?
Proposition No. 1 is a proposed six-year EMS levy at a rate of $0.50 per $1,000 of assessed property value — about $4.17 per month for every $100,000 of assessed value.

🚒 WHAT WOULD IT FUND?
If approved, the levy would provide dedicated funding to hire 14 full-time firefighter/EMTs and add 24-hour staffing at two additional stations.

ℹ️ LEARN MORE
We've created a webpage with information about the proposed levy, including what it would cost, what it would fund, why additional staffing is being considered, and answers to frequently asked questions.

SAFETY SUNDAY
The summer temps are rising, so be aware of heat-related issues! Heat related issues, like heat exhaustion and heat stroke, can happen fast. Here are some things to keep in mind when spending time in the sun this summer...

💦Drink Water: This may seem like a no brainer, but to drink at least 64 ounces of water per day...and of course more if you active during warm temperatures
⛱️Find Shade: take frequent breaks in the shade to cool off and rest, especially when doing physical activities
🩱Wear Light, Breathable Clothes: light colored and loose fitting clothes help regulate your body temps
🌡️Heat Exhaustion Signs: Dizziness, intense thirst, heavy sweating, nausea, and weakness...if anyone has this symptoms act quickly by getting them to a cooler place and get water in their system
🥵Heat Stroke Signs: Confusion, dizziness, and loss of consciousness...act fast and call 911 immediately

Stay Cool...Stay Hydrated...Stay Informed!

SAFETY SUNDAY
With it being summer, let's talk about pool safety folks. Below are some tips to keep your loved ones safe this summer while enjoying that backyard pool...

-Think about installing a fence for your backyard pool. The fence should be at least four-feet high and have a self-closing, self-latching gate that has a locking mechanism beyond a child's reach.

-Supervision is a must. Follow the 10/20 rule when you're at the pool. The 10/20 rule states the supervising adult needs to position themselves to be able to scan the pool within 10 seconds and reach the water within 20 seconds.

-Always check the pool first if a child is missing. Child drowning is often a silent death that alerts no one with splashes or yells for help. Many drowning accidents happen when children have been missing for less than five minutes.

-Empty small wading pools after children are done playing and remove all toys. Infants can drown in just a few inches of water. Pool toys may attract children to the pool when it is unattended.

-Teach your child to swim, but remember that younger children shouldn't be left unsupervised around water even if they know how to swim.

-Have a phone poolside and learn CPR in case of emergencies.
