What an absolutely incredible day for the City of Palmetto's FIRST EVER Citizens Fire Academy! We had a phenomenal class of residents step behind the scenes to see exactly what it takes to protect our community.
Our participants didn't just watch—they suited up and got hands-on! From learning about our tools, trucks, and life-saving EMS skills, to getting a feel for the equipment firsthand, they did it all. Check out these highlights from the day:
🚒 Spraying the powerful fire hoses
🔥 Putting out fires with the fire extinguisher simulator
🚗 Using the extrication tools to completely cut doors off a car!
A massive THANK YOU to our amazing local sponsors who kept our academy crew fueled and energized all day long:
🍩 Dunkin’ for the delicious morning breakfast and coffee!
🥖 Subway for a fantastic lunch lineup!
Thank you to our inaugural class for your energy, your enthusiasm, and your dedication to learning more about Palmetto Fire Rescue. You all crushed it! 👏💪
Missed out on the action this time around? We would love to have you join us for the next one—stay tuned for future academy dates!

Today we got to spend some time out at the Microsoft site conducting fire, safety, and extinguisher training for about 60 of their team members. We love having the opportunity to share these essential skills with our local partners to ensure everyone knows exactly what to do in an emergency.
A huge thank you to the Microsoft staff for being such a proactive and engaged group and to Atlanta-Fulton County Emergency Management Agency (AFCEMA) for the use of the digital fire extinguisher training system!

🚫 Annual Summer Burn Ban Begins May 1

The Georgia Environmental Protection Division’s annual summer burn ban goes into effect tomorrow for 54 counties, primarily in and around metro Atlanta.

⚠️ What this means:
➡️ Open burning is not permitted in the affected counties during this time
➡️ The ban is separate from current wildfire-related restrictions in other parts of the state

If you live in or near metro Atlanta, be sure to check if your county is included and plan accordingly.
