We’d like to give a big shoutout and congratulations to one of our members, Ernest McClain for recently passing their National Registry to become a certified EMT-B!

Congrats Ernie and thank you for all your hard work and dedication!

Yesterday, members of A-Shift were joined by members of Elkhart Firefighters Local 338 for some good quality training. The training focused on drafting operations and allowed for all companies to drill skills that occur in low-frequency, but high-risk calls. Conducting these skills allows for seamless operation when these calls do occur as well as give members opportunities to perform skills they may not often get to. In addition to this, it also allows for crews that may not often see each other have the opportunity to talk and share skills learned in their careers.

We at Osolo Fire & EMS appreciate the opportunity to work alongside all our mutual aid partners and continue working to provide the best possible service to the community!

Hey everyone! We at Osolo Fire & EMS are happy to announce our newest member! Please help us give a big hello to:

Lincoln!!

Lincoln decided to stop by today and visit the members of D-Shift with one goal, meet the firefighters and see the cool fire trucks. After meeting him and giving him a tour, everyone agreed on one thing, he would be an amazing addition to our department! So before he left, we gave him a set of gear and made his dream of becoming a firefighter one day true. Lincoln now holds the rank of: Honorary Probationary Firefighter!! 🧑‍🚒

From all of us at Osolo Fire & EMS and on behalf of all our amazing residents of Osolo Township, we say welcome aboard Lincoln!

Happy 250 America! 🇺🇸

Yesterday, C-Shift and members of the Water Rescue Team from Osolo Fire and EMS were thankfully able to find a window of free time between calls to enjoy the annual firework show on Simonton Lake! There was some concerns for a few hours of potential bad weather spoiling the great time, but thankfully it stayed away and allowed for an amazing show for our amazing nation! We look forward to seeing everyone again next year for 251!

A big thank you to the Simonton Lake Sportsmen's Club and the Simonton Lake HOA who continue to not only put on an amazing show/event every year, but allowing us to be part of it!

A big thank you Phorm Energy’s Fuel America Case Drops and United Beverage for dropping off these wonderful drinks to our station! As we hit peak summer time, firefighters use even more energy than normal between running calls and training. These drinks will definitely provide a much needed and good tasting boost in everyone’s day! Thank you again for the generous gifts and we guarantee they won’t last long!

Hello everyone! As some of you may know, over the last year there has been talks about a merger between Osolo Fire and Osolo EMS. Now, we know that may seem confusing because we both share the Osolo name so you may ask; how are we not already together? Well you see, for the last 40 years, we have been two separate corporations with one shared goal, provide the best service possible for the community. This system worked for a while but it is now time we close that chapter and begin a new one. The new one being:

Osolo Township Fire and EMS Department

Now, what does this mean for you?
In a blunt answer, nothing! We know, that might sound crazy, but here is why we say that. All that changes is now we operate as truly one. One entity, one name! Same faces, same quality of care, and the same continued goal:
Provide the best possible care for those of Osolo Township and anywhere else we may be called!

With that, there will be some small changes, mainly the look and “brand” of the department if you will. You might start seeing small changes here and there from uniforms, to logos, to even some wording on the fire trucks. But do not worry, it’s simply cosmetic. We here at Osolo Fire and EMS appreciate all of the community support and understanding as we begin this new adventure we understand there may be questions so please feel free to contact us!

Osolo Fire and EMS is proud to serve the residents of Osolo Township and all those surrounding us

Well it’s safe to say summer is here! ☀️🕶️

As many know, it’s a big week as we are rolling into the 4th of July and with it, it brought some extreme heat! *Insert fire pun here*

With that, we here at Osolo Fire want to lend a hand and give everyone some tips on how to stay safe in these temps!
WHAT NOT TO DO:
❌ Decide at 1pm that it’s a great time to redo the entire garden 🧑‍🌾👩‍🌾
❌ Run a marathon 🏃🏃‍♀️
❌ See how long you can go without drinking water

WHAT TO DO:
✅ Drink plenty of water and electrolytes (Gatorade, Powerade, Pedialyte)
✅Take breaks! If you have to conduct work outside, do it in short bursts (15-20 minutes). Get in shade or utilize that amazing A/C
✅Be comfortable! Wear loose, bright colored clothes as they don’t absorb as much heat

In all seriousness, we ask and encourage that everyone be smart and stay safe this week. Elkhart County is under an Extreme Heat Advisory at least until Thursday evening so this is not going anywhere. Expect temperatures in the low 100s with the heat index with the lows being in the mid to upper 70s at night so there won’t be much of a break. Most of all, check on your friends and family, especially if they are of older age. Stay safe everyone!

Exciting News!

Hello everyone! We at Osolo Fire would like to inform everyone that in the next week, there will be some “brand” changes coming to the Osolo Fire page. Don’t be alarmed if you see these changes as they have been in the works for many months now and are finally ready to be shared! We look forward to sharing these with you and filling you in on what it all means when the time is right! Thank you for the continued support and hope you are as excited as we are for what the future brings!
