Okay, okay… we heard you 🇺🇸🔥

The Rochester Fire America 250 store was supposed to close already… but the support has been incredible, so we’re extending it through JULY 4TH.

That means you’ve still got time to grab:
👕 T-Shirts
🧥 Crewnecks
🔥 Hoodies

And honestly… these turned out way too good not to keep around a little longer.

Best part? Every purchase helps support Heroes Point and the mission of honoring and supporting our veterans and heroes.

📦 Everything ships directly to your door.
⏳ Extended deadline: July 4th

After that, they’re gone for good. No restocks. No “one more chance” posts. Probably. 😏

🚨 Bloomer Park Trail Work & Training Notice 🚨

This week, Rochester Fire crews are working along several trails in Bloomer Park to ensure primary access routes remain clear for our UTV. While motorized vehicles are not normally permitted on these trails, maintaining access is critical so we can quickly reach patients during emergencies.

Crews are performing normal maintenance removing branches and clearing fallen trees to keep these pathways accessible. This maintenance is generally done each spring, removing only the minimum amount of trees and debris necessary to allow UTV access, making every effort to preserve the natural condition of the trails and minimize any disruption to the park’s natural environment.

📅 Saturday Training Activity
On Saturday, April 25th, from 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM, crews will be conducting a training exercise within the park.

During this time, visitors may notice:

An increased presence of emergency vehicles in parking areas
Fire personnel operating on foot and utilizing UTVs throughout the park

This training is part of our ongoing efforts to ensure our personnel are prepared for emergency incidents in challenging environments, including the steep terrain of the hiking and biking trails located throughout the park.

If you are in the park and come across our crews, please feel free to say hi and observe from a safe distance!

We appreciate your awareness and cooperation as we continue working to keep our community safe!

Earlier today Rochester Fire Department laid to rest our longest serving member, Assistant Chief Bob Tyrell, who served our department and the city of Rochester for 58 years before his retirement in 2019. Even after his retirement, he was a regular fixture at the station, stopping by to enjoy a cup of coffee with the crew, tell stories, and share his knowledge. Chief Tyrell, you will always be part of the fabric of our department and your legacy lives on in all of us who learned from you over many years.

Assistant Chief Robert Tyrell has answered his final call, his duties well done over nearly six decades of service and he has returned home to eternal rest. Your brothers and sisters at Rochester Fire have the watch from here. Thank you for your service, and may you rest in peace.

The Rochester Fire Department is advising all residents to stay off the Clinton River and Paint Creek until further notice due to dangerous conditions.

Recent weather and water flow have created unstable banks, strong currents, and hazardous debris that make the river unsafe for recreational use. These conditions significantly increase the risk of injury or accidental drowning, even for experienced individuals.

For your safety and the safety of first responders:
• Do not attempt to walk, fish, or recreate near or on the river
• Keep children and pets away from the water’s edge
• Report any emergencies immediately by calling 911

We appreciate your cooperation in helping keep our community safe.
