🔥 HOW DO YOU REMEMBER THE CLASSES OF FIRE?

A simple trick: Ask yourself, “What is burning?”

🔥 A — Ash
🔥 B — Boil
⚡ C — Current
⭐ D — Combustible metals
🍳 K — Kitchen

Knowing the fire class helps you choose the right extinguisher.

💬 What trick do you use to remember A, B, C, D, and K? Share it in the comments!

Several schools in our area will start back up this week. With that being said, let’s go over a few things to remember for the 2026-2027 school year!

- ALWAYS keep an eye out for students walking or riding bicycles. 🚶‍♂️🚲

-SLOW DOWN in the school zones. Deputies will be out hot and heavy patrolling school zones, ensuring the safety of our students.⚠️

-ALWAYS stop for school buses displaying a stop sign. We’ve attached a picture below on when you should stop for a loading/unloading bus. Failure to follow this law can result in hefty fines. 🛑

-Please be mindful of the heavy traffic, especially in the first few weeks. With everyone getting back into the groove of things, it may be congested. Be courteous and find alternate routes as needed.

Let’s have a safe and happy school year everyone! Good luck to all of the students and teachers.🙂‍↔️

The future of our fire service is in great hands with our younger crew! Tonight at the city council meeting, two of our own—Lieutenant Ryan David and firefighter Ash Mills—received commendations for going above and beyond. Over the 4th of July weekend, while returning from an unrelated fire call, they came across a police patrol unit caught up in an 'unintentional fireworks display.' Thanks to their quick actions, they saved the police unit and put out a grass fire that easily could have scorched several acres before an officially dispatched crew could arrive. Awesome job, guys! 🚒👏"
