This week is National 911 Public Safety Telecommunicators Week!

Fitchburg Fire would like to extend a huge THANK YOU to the Dane County 911 Center and other 911 centers throughout the United States.

We want to honor our incredible 911 Telecommunicators —
They are the incredibly dedicated team of professionals who answer your 911 calls and provide lifesaving instruction in times of crisis. They guide our crews and our community through every emergency with professionalism and compassion.
To our dispatchers: Thank you for your dedication, your steady presence, and the critical work you do every single day. We couldn’t do our job without you!

🔥 Firehouse Feature 🔥

For our second month of the Firehouse Feature series, we're proud to introduce Firefighter Donald Sparby! Donald has been a paid‑on‑call firefighter with Fitchburg Fire for 7 years.

🚒 What made you decide to become a firefighter?
"After earning my Eagle Scout rank, I was looking for another way to serve my community. I first became a firefighter when my local volunteer department needed daytime responders. I later joined FFD at the recommendation of a co‑worker who encouraged me to grow my skills and become a better firefighter."

🚒 What is your favorite part of the job?
"My favorite part of the job is the opportunity to learn something new every shift. Firefighters are problem solvers — we find different ways to tackle the challenges that arise in the community."

🚒 What do you enjoy doing on your days off?
"When I’m not on duty, I enjoy spending time with my family and training with my daughters in Taekwondo."

🚒 What do you like most about serving the Fitchburg community?
"I enjoy teaching fire safety within the community. It’s exciting to see people learn and become more confident with fire safety."

Thank you, Firefighter Sparby, for all you do!

Another round of severe weather is expected to move across Dane County later today and this evening.

Make sure you have multiple ways to receive notifications about severe weather warnings! Don't rely on outdoor warning sirens alone, as you may not hear them indoors. Check that Wireless Emergency Alerts are enabled on your cell phone, get a NOAA Weather Radio, and sign up for emergency notifications from Dane County.
