We couldn’t help but notice our friends at
Webber Fire Department out there filling pools already… guess they beat us to the hose this year 😏💦

But don’t worry — we’re ready to bring the water and our “POOLMASTER” 😉).

Our volunteer firefighters will once again be offering pool filling services as a fundraiser. It’s fast, it’s easy, and it keeps you from babysitting a garden hose all day.

💧 Save time
💧 Support your local volunteer firefighters
💧 Get your pool summer-ready the right way

📞 Contact us today to get on the schedule!

And to our brothers who started this trend… we’ll try not to make you look too bad this season 😎🚒. It’s all in good fun!

Thank you to our amazing Jefferson County Dispatchers!  They do an amazing job!
