Our crews recently participated in solar panel emergency response training to stay prepared for incidents involving residential and commercial solar energy systems. As solar technology becomes more common in our community, it’s important for firefighters to understand the unique hazards these systems can present during fires, storms, and rescue situations.
This hands-on training focused on identifying solar equipment, safely shutting down systems, recognizing electrical hazards, and adapting firefighting operations around energized panels. Continuous training like this helps ensure the safety of both our responders and the community we serve. 🚒☀️

Thank you for your commitment, compassion, professionalism, and sacrifice. Your dedication does not go unnoticed.

We get this question sometimes—why don’t responders run?

This post explains it perfectly. “Slow is smooth, smooth is fast.” Our team is trained to stay calm, think clearly, and act with precision when every second counts.

Last night our fire department worked on several skills during a mock fire call. We worked on our response time getting out of the fire hall, setting up at the scene, including the drop tank and getting water on the fire as quickly and safely as possible. These mock scenes help us keep our skills up in driving the trucks, pump controls, filling trucks, and being able to build teamwork in a situation.
