🔥 Grill Safely This Season! 🔥
Nothing says summer like firing up the grill, but safety should always come first.

✅ Keep your grill at least 10 feet away from your home, deck railings, and overhanging branches.

✅ Never leave a lit grill unattended.

✅ Keep children and pets at least 3 feet away from the grilling area.

✅ Clean grease and fat buildup regularly to prevent flare-ups.

✅ Check propane tanks and connections for leaks before use.

✅ Keep a fire extinguisher nearby and know how to use it.
A few simple precautions can help prevent fires and keep your cookout safe and enjoyable.

🚒 Your local fire department wishes everyone a safe grilling season!

As temperatures rise, more families are spending time in and around swimming pools. A few simple precautions can help prevent tragedy:

Always supervise children around water—never leave them unattended.

Designate a "Water Watcher" who stays focused on swimmers and avoids distractions like phones.

Ensure gates and pool barriers are secure and self-latching.

Keep rescue equipment and a phone nearby in case of emergency.

Learn CPR and basic water rescue skills.

Encourage swimmers of all ages to wear properly fitted life jackets when needed.

Remember: Drowning can happen quickly and quietly.

Stay alert, stay prepared, and help keep your family safe this summer.

But rest assured we are always ready to accept any challenges.
We are always ready to assist Tri Creek EMS on medical emergencies, ensuring a compassionate response when needed. It fills us with pride to know we back up The Lowell Fire Department and Cedar Lake Fire Department, and any Fire Department that requires our support during emergency situations.
