Today marks 21 years since the passing of Fire Captain/Paramedic, Greg Otto. Captain Otto had an indelible impact on SLOFD and our community. He was an incredible father, husband, friend, mentor, Captain, SWAT Medic, and Union patriot. He is deeply missed #Slocity #firefighter

A big thank you to the observant young community member who noticed something wasn’t right and spoke up.

It’s that time of the year again - Daylight Saving Time ends at 2am on Sunday! Don’t forget to “fall back” one hour.
When you change your clocks, take a minute to check your smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors.
