For our drill last night we had vehicle stabilization training. We were able to get some good base material to make a training pad behind our station. The materials were donated by Huebner Concrete. Delgado's Wrecker Service gave us some totaled vehicles to use. For this training our members were able to get valuable hands on training in vehicle stabilization using basic cribbing, struts, and lifting airbags. This is just the beginning training on these vehicles. Next we will be able to perform door removals, dash lifts, roof removals with the rescue tools.

Thank you for the generous donations.

Reminder that Colorado County is currently under a burn ban.

9-29-2025 - Last evening Frelsburg Volunteer Fire Department got dispatched to extinguish a grass fire started by a burn ban violation. In total we estimate that the fire burned 5 acres of tall grass and got in some thicker brush and was close to some structures. It burned several brush piles that all had to be put out. If the winds had been stronger it could have been worse. We did request New Ulm Vol. Fire Dept for agency assistance for tanker and grass trucks.

With no rain forecast for the next several days the dry conditions are going to get worse. This post is not meant to bash anyone but to bring awareness that everyone should be aware of what is going on. One concerned citizen did the right thing and notified the authorities.

9-28-2025 - This afternoon Frelsburg Volunteer Fire Department got dispatched to a grass fire at Vogelsang and Zimmerscheidt Road. It was found that a buzzard contacted the high voltage power lines and it started the grass fire. The fire was quickly contained to less than an acre. San Bernard Electric Cooperative, Inc. made scene to restore power to the area.
