One of the greatest responsibilities of a firefighter is passing knowledge on to the next generation.

Today, Firefighter Billy Zabriskie volunteered his time to spend the day with our current recruit class, sharing his expertise and providing hands-on ladder training. His willingness to invest in these future firefighters reflects the dedication, professionalism, and pride that make the fire service so special.

The skills taught today will help prepare our recruits for the challenges ahead and strengthen the safety of both our department and the community we serve. Thank you, Billy, for leading by example and helping shape the firefighters of tomorrow.

🌧️ FLOODING UPDATE 🌧️

Preliminary reports indicate Jackson Fire Department crews have completed approximately 10–12 water rescues so far during this flooding event.

Conditions are improving, and the rain has largely subsided. However, standing water remains on some roadways. Motorists are urged to continue using extreme caution and never drive into floodwaters. It only takes a small amount of moving water to sweep a vehicle away.

If roads are closed due to flooding, do not bypass barriers.
