It’s a beautiful day for some fire safety education! 🚒🔥

Today, we’re at St Charles Borromeo School spending time with our youngest preschoolers and teaching them about what firefighters do.

At this age, one of the most important things we can do is help children understand that firefighters are there to help them. That means showing them our gear, explaining what we wear, and helping them understand that while our appearance may change during a fire, we are still the same firefighters there to keep them safe.

We want every child to know: If there is a fire in your home, get out and stay out. Never hide from firefighters.

Building that understanding early can make a huge difference when seconds matter.

Thank you to everyone who came out to our Fire Department Open House today! 🚒

We had a great time meeting our community, sharing fire safety information, and showing everyone a little more about what we do.

We truly appreciate everyone who stopped by, asked questions, participated in the activities, and helped make the day such a success!

Here are some great photos from the day! 📸🔥

25 years have passed. We still remember. 🇺🇸

On September 11, 2001, thousands of people went to work expecting it to be an ordinary day. For 343 firefighters, 60 police officers, and countless other first responders, it became their final call.

They ran toward the danger when everyone else was running away.

They climbed the stairs of the World Trade Center carrying equipment, carrying hope, and carrying the lives of strangers on their minds. Many never made it back down.

Twenty-five years later, we continue to carry their memory with us.

Today, the crews working at St. Anthony Fire took time to honor those fallen heroes with a stair climb at the fire station. Members of our department also joined firefighters from departments across the metro area at TCO Stadium to climb together in remembrance.

With every step, we remembered a name.
With every flight, we remembered a sacrifice.
With every breath, we remembered those who gave their last one trying to save someone else.

We will never truly know the weight those firefighters carried that morning, but we can make sure the weight of their sacrifice is never forgotten.

343 firefighters. 60 police officers. Thousands of innocent lives. One day that changed our country forever.

Twenty-five years later, we remember their courage.
We remember their families.
We remember the brothers and sisters who answered the call.
And we remember that they went to work that morning just like we do — expecting to come home.

We will never forget. 🇺🇸

Today we had a medical call that required us to split our crews and provide care to several patients. One of the trickier parts of the call was the location of those patients, which meant we had to get a little creative.

Thankfully, we had some great partners from the St. Anthony Police Department there to help. Everyone is doing alright, and we were able to get everyone the care they needed.

A special thank-you to St. Anthony Police Department for giving the other half of our crew a ride back in their squad. 🚔

You truly helped a few firefighters check “ride in the back of a cop car” off their bucket list! 😂

Thanks for always being there when we need you, SAPD! 👮‍♂️🚒

Did you know that fires make up only a small portion of our call volume?

The majority of our calls are medical emergencies, while the rest include vehicle accidents, hazard calls such as downed wires, CO alarms, gas calls, and many other types of emergencies.

Altogether, these calls add up to more than 2,000 calls each year! 🚒🚑

Every call is different, but our mission remains the same: to be there when our community needs us.
