As Deputy Chief, Eric Swanson has been a steady and respected leader, especially when it came to training and developing our members. He consistently took the time to guide new firefighters, set clear expectations, and lead by example to ensure they were prepared not just to do the job, but to do it right.

Eric’s commitment to quality training and accountability helped strengthen our department and ensured we could continue providing reliable, professional service to the taxpayers we serve. His focus on safety, skill, and teamwork has left a lasting impact on our organization and the people who wear this patch.

Thank you, Deputy Chief Swanson, for your dedication, leadership, and the countless hours invested in building the next generation of firefighters. The lessons you’ve instilled and the standards you’ve set will continue to guide this department well into the future. We wish you the very best as you take on new opportunities and begin the next chapter in Wisconsin.

🎅🚴‍♂️🎄 Santa on the Move! 🎄🚴‍♀️🎅

Looks like Santa found a different way to spread Christmas cheer this year! 🎁✨ We were lucky enough to catch Santa making a special stop with an incredible group of festive riders, all lit up and full of holiday spirit.

Whether it’s by sleigh, fire truck, or bike, Santa always knows how to bring the magic—and we loved seeing the community come together for this unforgettable moment. ❤️🚒🚴‍♂️

Thank you to everyone who waved, smiled, and helped make tonight extra special. This is what the holiday season is all about: community, laughter, and a little Christmas magic.

🎄🎅 From all of us at the Schaeferville Fire Protection District—Merry Christmas! 🎅🎄
