A busy week for everyone in Cissna including our fire department. Thursday we have our Community Safety Day, we will be selling tickets for our raffle throughout Old Settlers weekend, during the parade Saturday we will once again be collecting for the Ronald McDonald House, and after the parade we have our kids water ball competition. We hope everyone has a safe and fun filled weekend in Cissna Park.

Come join us for Community Safety Day! 🚒❤️

While the adults learn important, potentially life-saving skills like CPR, AED use, the Heimlich maneuver, and fire extinguisher safety, the kids can have some fun checking out the fire trucks, ambulance and equipment! 🚒🧑‍🚒

And don’t forget — lunch is served from 11 AM–1 PM! 🌭 Everyone is welcome!

IDNR has awarded $495,000 in federal grants to 73 volunteer fire departments across the state to help with purchasing new equipment or paying for fire training.

The Volunteer Fire Capacity (VFC) grant program is funded by the U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service. The program provides matching funds to aid fire departments in the purchase of new equipment and helps fund training. Funding is passed through IDNR to local fire departments and fire training academies.

The 73 grantees provide fire protection to about 250,000 Illinois residents, primarily in rural areas of Illinois.
