Every fire Tri-County Volunteer Fire Department responds to has two goals:

1) Keep our community members safe
2) Extinguish it quickly.

Earlier this week, we responded to a structure fire near a home. 💔 Athough some structures were lost, our community members are safe & their home was spared. 🙌🏽🙌🏽

Special thanks to our extended fire family for responding as mutual aide: Edison Fire Protection District, Calhan Fire Department, Fire Department, Fire Department, & Fire Department. We appreciate the teamwork!!

TRI-COUNTY VFD
This week our volunteers handled a mix of medical calls and a structure fire. Even with the recent rains, conditions remain dry, and we are still under a burn ban, so please continue practicing fire safety — secure trailer chains, avoid burning, and report smoke immediately.
Thanks for your continued support. Our community makes this work possible.
— Fire Chief, TRI-COUNTY VFD
