If you notice an influx of police, fire and EMS units in the area, we will be conducting a Critical incident training at FA.

On April 21st, the Piscataquis County Emergency Management Agency is hosting a “Critical Incident” training exercise at Foxcroft Academy. This exercise will give police, fire and emergency medical services (EMS) the opportunity to practice techniques and test procedures in preparation for potential mass events in the area.

As a result, law enforcement agencies, fire departments and EMS personnel from across the region will be present at Foxcroft Academy during this exercise. Please note, the Foxcroft Academy campus, including the Jim Robinson Field House, will be closed to the public until 3:00pm on April 21st.

If you have any questions, please contact Debra Hamlin, Director of the Piscataquis County Emergency Management Agency at [email protected].

- Make sure there are no combustible items with 3 feet of heating appliances.

- Make sure smoke and carbon monoxide detectors are working properly.

- Make sure you have at least 2 egress ways clear of snow in case of an emergency.

-Never use open flames to thaw frozen pipes.

- Limit exposure and keep pets inside when possible.
