This past weekend, our members got to participate in a couple of different events around the county.

On Friday, multiple different agencies joined together for the annual Shop with a Cop event, where over 60 kids around the county got to shop with first responders.

On Sunday, our community and multiple county departments participated in a parade for Honorary Manchester Firefighter Casen Gullett, who was diagnosed with DIPG and has recently declined.

Thank you to everybody who had a part in making this holiday special for the kids of our county!

Earlier today, firefighters were at the Station and observed what appeared to be a fire of unknown origin near the fire station. Engine 14 responded to the area and located a dog house that was on fire in close proximity to a structure, causing the structure to catch fire. Firefighters quickly extinguished the fire and mutual aid was disregarded. After the fire was extinguished, firefighters determined the cause of the fire was a heat lamp the owners used to heat the dog kennel.

Seeing Through the Smoke: Thermal Imaging in Firefighting 🚒🔥

In the heat of an emergency, every second counts — and that’s where thermal imaging cameras (TICs) come in.

These powerful tools allow firefighters to see through smoke, locate victims, and detect hidden hot spots that could reignite. Whether it’s navigating a structure fire or conducting a search and rescue, TICs provide critical visibility when it’s needed most.

What do thermal imaginging cameras do:
🔥 Spot people or pets trapped inside
🔥 Detect hidden fire behind walls or ceilings
🔥 Guide safe entry and exit routes
🔥 Increase overall firefighter safety

Today, our members participated in a training exercise in the Ohio Mobile Search & Rescue Training Lab trailer, engaging in multiple search and rescue simulations that highlighted victim location and effective communication among the interior crew. These trailers, offer our firefighters a controlled environment to practice their skills.
