Our department was invited to participate in Farm Safety Day at Taloga. Joshua Colvard spoke with students about fire safety, explaining the equipment used to combat both wildland and structure fires.

Students had the opportunity to walk through the smoke house with Vici Fire Dept. and spray a fire hose with Taloga Fire & EMS, giving them a hands-on learning experience.

Farm Safety Day also featured important topics such as tractor safety, ATV safety, electrical safety, and many others. We are grateful to be part of an event that helps educate and protect our community’s youth.

We hope everyone stays weather aware tonight and safe!
