🇺🇸 Happy Independence Day from Scioto Valley Fire District! 🇺🇸

Today, we proudly celebrate the 250th Anniversary of the United States of America—a remarkable milestone honoring two and a half centuries of freedom, resilience, and the enduring spirit of our nation.

As we commemorate America 250, we also recognize the generations of military members, first responders, and everyday citizens whose service and sacrifice have helped preserve the liberties we enjoy today. Their dedication reminds us that freedom is never taken for granted.

As you celebrate with family and friends, we encourage everyone to make safety part of your holiday:

🎆 Leave fireworks to the professionals whenever possible.
🔥 Keep a bucket of water or hose nearby if using consumer fireworks.
🚒 Never allow children to handle fireworks.
🍔 Keep grills away from homes, decks, and anything combustible.
🚗 Never drink and drive—designate a sober driver.

From all of us at Scioto Valley Fire District, thank you for allowing us to serve this incredible community. We are honored to protect the residents of Bowling Green Township, Montgomery Township, the Village of La Rue, and the Village of New Bloomington.

As our community also celebrates La Rue’s 175th Anniversary this year, we’re especially grateful to be part of such a proud tradition while our nation celebrates America’s 250th Birthday.

Have a safe, happy, and memorable Fourth of July!

Happy Independence Day, and here’s to 250 years of America! 🇺🇸❤️🤍💙

Today, members of Scioto Valley Fire District had the honor of attending the Memorial Day Ceremony at La Rue Cemetery as we joined our community in remembering and honoring the brave men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to our country.

Memorial Day serves as a reminder that freedom comes at a cost, and today we reflected on the courage, dedication, and selflessness of those who gave everything for our nation. We are grateful for the opportunity to stand alongside veterans, families, and community members to pay tribute to our fallen heroes.

A special thank you to Chad Grote for capturing these amazing aerial photographs and helping preserve this meaningful day of remembrance.
