Shift Crew Highlight – Micole Heater
-
Interviewer: "What inspired you to become a Firefighter?"
Micole: "I have always had an admiration for firefighters growing up, but I didn’t know if I was capable of it. When I joined the Army National Guard and got back from training, I figured if I could do that, I could be a firefighter. I put in my application to be a volunteer the second I got back home. Easily one of the best decisions I have ever made."
-
Interviewer: "Can you share a moment on the job that reminded you how your work impacts the community?"
Micole: "There are lots of moments like that. Some that stick out to me is when we respond to medical calls and the patient and their family thank us at the end of the call. You can tell we made their horrible day a little better."
-
Interviewer: "What do you do personally to stay physically, mentally, and professionally ready for any emergency?"
Micole: "Working out, having fun, and training my skills keeps me ready for anything. This job can be hard, but remaining positive and enjoying the little things in life keeps things in perspective."
-
Interviewer: "What do you enjoy outside of the station that helps you unwind after a long shift?" Micole: "After a long shift, I love to read, relax, and annoy my cat!"
-
Interviewer: "What is your favorite part about being a Firefighter?"
Micole: "I love being there for my community and making this world a bit of a better place. It’s also a lot of fun and the camaraderie between the fire family can’t be found anywhere else."
-
Thank you, Micole, for your dedication to protecting Stayton!

Backyard Burn Season has begun! Before you burn, call the Burn Information Line after 9 AM to confirm it’s an approved burn day:

📞1‑877‑982‑0011.

YOU MAY ONLY BURN NATURAL YARD DEBRIS THAT COMES FROM YOUR OWN PROPERTY, such as leaves, branches, clippings, and trimmings. Burning plastic, rubber, garbage, tires, treated wood, or anything that creates dense or toxic smoke is illegal.

All backyard burns must be attended at all times and kept in a safe, open area with a water source and tools nearby. Always check the burn line or the DEQ interactive map before starting a fire to make sure burning is allowed that day.

Stay smart and stay safe!

David Harding Taylor

August 29th, 1988 - August 29th, 2026

It is with a heavy heart that we honor the life and sacrifice of David Harding Taylor. David served as a volunteer with Scio RFPD and tragically lost his life in the line of duty while assisting with wildfire operations in Oklahoma. As a Federal Wildlife Officer, David was called to support local law enforcement agencies with resident evacuation efforts during the Railroad South Fire near Indiahoma. David was carrying a fellow Navy veteran out of a house when he fell.

Prior to his passing, a ceremonial flag belonging to David was donated to Stayton Fire District. In recognition of his service, courage, and sacrifice, we will raise this flag at half-mast from dawn to dusk tomorrow at our Stayton station.

We invite members of our community to join us in paying their respects and honoring the memory of a dedicated public servant, volunteer firefighter, veteran, and hero.

This morning, FF Sean Weitman gave a presentation on the history of Stayton Fire District for the 2nd grader's local history fieldtrip. Thanks to the Stayton Public Library for allowing us to set up our apparatus in their parking lot and share what firefighters do. With aid from our shift crew, Sean also taught the students the importance of remembering to stop, drop, and roll in the event of a fire.
Great work, Sean!
