Earlier in May, members of Community Fire Company of Cornwall Borough joined other area fire companies for Hazmat training to sharpen skills, strengthen teamwork, and stay prepared for a wide range of emergency situations.

Training like this gives firefighters the opportunity to practice specialized response techniques, work alongside neighboring departments, and build the readiness needed when our community calls.

Thank you to all members who took part and to our mutual aid partners for training together. Stronger together, better prepared for Cornwall and the surrounding communities.

As we head into Memorial Day weekend, we pause to honor & remember the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to our great country.

With rain expected for much of the weekend, some cookouts and travel plans may look a little different, but safety still matters. Whether you are on the road, grilling between rain showers, or spending time with family and friends, please keep these reminders in mind:

🇺🇸 Allow extra travel time and slow down on wet roads
🇺🇸 Never drive through standing water
🇺🇸 Keep grills outdoors and away from homes, porches, garages, and overhangs
🇺🇸 Never grill inside a garage, even with the door open
🇺🇸 Keep children and pets away from hot grills
🇺🇸 Make sure coals and ashes are fully cooled before disposal

From all of us at Community Fire Company of Cornwall Borough, we wish you a safe and meaningful Memorial Day weekend.

Remember. Honor. Stay safe!
