🚨 FOOD SAFETY FYI 🚨

A friendly reminder from Kerhonkson-Accord First Aid Squad (KAFAS) — don’t leave food sitting out on the counter too long! 🍔🥗🍗

Food left at unsafe temperatures can quickly become dangerous. The “Danger Zone” is 40°F–140°F, where bacteria can grow rapidly — sometimes doubling in as little as 20 minutes.

⏰ Remember:
▪️ 2 hours max at room temperature
▪️ Only 1 hour if it’s over 90°F outside

But it’s not just bacteria you have to worry about… 🪰🐜🐭

Food left out can attract flies, ants, roaches, mice, and other pests, which can contaminate food and surfaces with bacteria, droppings, and germs that may cause illness.

🤢 Eating contaminated food can lead to:

• Nausea
• Vomiting
• Diarrhea
• Fever
• Serious foodborne illness

✅ Food Safety Tips:
🔥 Keep hot foods HOT (140°F+)
❄️ Keep cold foods COLD (40°F or below)
🕒 Refrigerate leftovers promptly
🗑️ When in doubt, throw it out!

Your health matters — especially during cookouts, gatherings, and warmer weather. Stay safe and keep the germs (and critters!) away!

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Successful Rescue at Peters Kill Highlights Interagency Teamwork

KERHONKSON, N.Y. — This afternoon, the Kerhonkson-Accord First Aid Squad (KAFAS) responded alongside Accord Fire Company, Emergency Management, and Minnewaska State Park Rangers to the Peters Kill Swimming Hole at Minnewaska State Park for a reported injured party in a remote location.

Upon arrival, responders hiked into the remote wooded area to locate the patient. After making contact, responders discovered the patient suffering from an apparent leg injury and unable to safely exit the area.

Due to the remote terrain and challenging access, responders carried the patient approximately a mile out of the woods to awaiting resources.

The patient was subsequently transported to a local hospital, where she is reported to be in stable condition and expected to make a full recovery.

“This incident highlights the critical importance of interagency communication, cooperation, and coordinated operations during complex rescues,” said Chief Douglas Finney-Carter of KAFAS. “The teamwork demonstrated today between EMS, fire personnel, emergency management, and park staff ensured this patient received rapid care under difficult circumstances. We are incredibly proud of everyone involved.”

KAFAS extends its sincere appreciation to all responding agencies and personnel for their professionalism and dedication and wishes the patient a speedy and full recovery.

🇺🇸 Happy Memorial Day from Kerhonkson Accord First Aid Squad (KAFAS) 🇺🇸

Today, we pause to honor and remember the brave men and women of our Armed Forces who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our nation. Their courage, dedication, and selflessness secured the freedoms we enjoy every day.

As first responders, we understand the meaning of service, sacrifice, and commitment to something greater than ourselves. We are forever grateful to those who gave everything for our country and to the families who carry their legacy forward.

This Memorial Day, we encourage our community to take a moment to reflect, remember, and honor our fallen heroes.

From all of us at Kerhonkson Accord First Aid Squad, thank you to those who served, those who continue to serve, and especially those who never made it home. ❤️🤍💙
