Tonight, OFD members trained on V.E.S. (Vent, Enter, Search) techniques.

V.E.S. is a specialized search method used by firefighters to quickly locate and remove victims from a structure during a fire, particularly in high-risk situations where time is critical. Training like this helps our members sharpen their skills, improve coordination, and stay prepared to protect our community when seconds matter most.

⚠️⚡ Electrical Safety Reminder ⚡⚠️

🌡️ As temperatures rise and air conditioners begin running more often, we want to remind everyone to NEVER plug an air conditioner or other heavy-duty appliance into an extension cord.

🔌 Extension cords can overheat under heavy electrical loads, creating a serious fire hazard. Air conditioners, space heaters, refrigerators, microwaves, and other large appliances should always be plugged directly into a properly grounded wall outlet.

🔥 Safety Tips:
✅ Plug heavy appliances directly into a wall outlet.
✅ Avoid overloading outlets or power strips.
✅ Inspect cords for damage or fraying.
✅ Use extension cords only for temporary, light-duty use.
✅ Make sure smoke alarms are working properly.

🏠 A simple safety step can help prevent a devastating house fire. Please help keep your family and home safe.
