Today, Guadalupe County Fire Rescue was proud to attend the first day of school at Clear Springs Elementary!

We want to give a special thank you to Dr. Garcia and her incredible staff for welcoming us and allowing GCFR to be part of such a special day for the students, parents, and community.

Events like this highlight the importance of the partnership between Guadalupe County Fire Rescue and the Guadalupe County Fire Marshal’s Office. Our mission goes far beyond responding to emergencies. We believe in being present in the community, building relationships, supporting our schools, and connecting with the families we serve.

Today was about more than fire trucks and the first day of school—it was about showing our community that GCFR and the Fire Marshal’s Office are here, involved, and committed to being a positive part of the lives we protect.

Thank you, Clear Springs Elementary, for letting us share in the excitement of the first day of school. We hope all of the students have a safe and amazing school year!

Today, Guadalupe County Fire Rescue had the opportunity to be part of a great Touch-a-Truck event at The Country Church in Marion, Texas!

It was a great day getting out in the community, meeting families, and giving kids the chance to get up close with some of the equipment our first responders use every day. We love opportunities like this to connect with the communities we serve and help inspire the next generation of firefighters and first responders!

A big thank you to The Country Church for inviting Guadalupe County Fire Rescue to be part of such a fun event!

🚒 Your community. Your fire department. Always here to serve.

Today, Guadalupe County Fire Rescue and Schertz Fire Department came together for joint HazMat Technician training as part of the Guada-Coma HazMat Response Team.

Our crews spent the day getting hands-on with the team’s HazMat equipment, working through equipment familiarization, and becoming more comfortable with the HazMat trailer and the resources available to us when responding to hazardous materials incidents.

Training together, working together, and building familiarity with our equipment and capabilities helps ensure that when the call comes, our teams are ready to respond safely and effectively.

Train hard. Respond ready. Protect our communities. ☣️🧪🚒☢️
