Please pray for Nate. He has been a member of our department since he was 15. He is extremely dedicated to helping others and expects nothing in return. Truly one of a kind for his age. His dream is to become a paramedic and dedicate his life in helping others.
Get better brother, we are all praying for you and your family.

A big thank you to everyone that showed up to the structure fire in Jamaica last night. Sidell fire was dispatched to a structure fire along with Allerton,Carroll and Fairmount Fire. Even though the structure was a total loss all crews worked hard and fast to knock the fire down and extinguish it quickly. Special thanks to Homer Fire for sending a crew to Fairmount station to stand by and cover our calls as we had all of our resources on this incident. Also a special thanks to Catlin Fire Department for standing by in their station as well. Tanker crews were called from Georgetown and Ridgefarm and Catlin but was not needed and called off before arriving on the scene. Oakwood ambulance was also on the scene to cover any medical emergencies, along with Fairmount police. Most importantly, thank you to my members of Fairmount Fire,we had a great turn out. A total of 11 of us responded and was able to use all available units. All departments did an amazing job. Thank you all!!
