Yesterday was a busy day for Stowe Fire Rescue, with two incidents that were serious in nature.

First, SFR responded to a leaking 1,000-gallon propane tank. Crews arrived quickly and worked to disperse the flammable gas until the Vermont Hazardous Materials Response Team arrived to assist. The surrounding area was closed for public safety.

Later that evening, SFR was dispatched to a garage fire. Once again, a quick response allowed crews to bring the situation under control and limit further damage.

Both incidents were reported by calling the fire station directly. Fortunately, personnel were at the station and the responses were not delayed. Although the station is staffed, our personnel may be out responding to another emergency, completing training, conducting inspections, or performing other duties in the community.

This is an important reminder: If you have an emergency, always call 911. Calling 911 ensures that the appropriate emergency responders are dispatched immediately and helps prevent potentially dangerous delays.

Today, members of Stowe Fire Rescue and Stowe Mountain Rescue joined several other local agencies for Stowe and Tell at the Stowe Elementary School.

Students had the opportunity to meet first responders, explore emergency vehicles and equipment, and learn about the many ways public safety agencies serve our community. It was a great day of education, community engagement, and fun for everyone involved.

Thank you to the staff and students for inviting us to participate, and to all the agencies that helped make the event a success.

Over the next few weeks members of Stowe Fire Rescue with be conducting annual dry hydrant testing. Dry hydrants are critical water supply points in rural areas without municipal hydrants and help ensure firefighters have reliable access to water during emergencies. We thank all members of the community that have installed dry hydrants in their ponds.
If anyone is interested in installing a dry hydrant please contact us at the Fire Rescue Building for details.

🚒 NEW TANKER 1 NOW IN SERVICE 🚒

Stowe Fire Rescue is proud to announce that our new Tanker 1 has officially been placed into service.

This apparatus replaces our previous tanker 1 and brings improved capabilities to support fire suppression operations throughout the Town of Stowe, especially in areas without hydrant coverage. The new tanker also has the ability to function as a pumping apparatus, giving our crews greater versatility on emergency scenes.

With only a limited portion of Stowe having hydrant access, tankers play a critical role in supplying water during rural firefighting operations. This addition helps improve our operational readiness, safety, and ability to serve the community effectively.

We would also like to sincerely thank the taxpayers and residents of Stowe for their continued support of Stowe Fire Rescue. Investments like this help ensure our members have the tools and equipment needed to protect the community safely and effectively.

Thank you as well to all the members involved in the planning, equipment transfer, training, and preparation that helped place Tanker 1 into service.
Better pictures to come when weather is better!!

Please help us welcome the new Tanker 1 to the fleet! 🇺🇸🚒
