Thank you to the First and Finest for everything you do as well!

[Troopers Steve Limani & Cliff Greenfield @PSPTroopAPIO]

Already this winter, our local volunteer firefighters have been called to battle numerous fires, many of which resulted in tragedy. Please take time to thank and support them. Many have families and work full-time jobs and are under considerable stress. We appreciate them! 🚒

This is what the holidays and Light the Night in Smithton are all about!

Seems like we are on the edge of ‘it might snow some, and/or freezing rain, maybe some sleet, or it just might rain (more rain - surprise, right?)’.

Regardless, stay safe!

A disruptive Winter Storm packing snow, sleet, and freezing rain is looking more and more possible late this week. Here is what we are looking at >>>

Thanksgiving is coming soon! Remember, frozen turkey + turkey fryer = a quick way to meet our crews.

Take all measures to stay safe this year!

As per @fsmikey & @FSBigBob, here’s the annual obligatory reminder of the dangers!

Last night we hosted members of Station 19 (Yukon) at our station for some equipment familiarization on each other’s trucks. This was a great step in working more fluidly with one another!

Our Twitter game has been weak. Time to fix that! Here’s a photo to show our rejuvenated excitement!

Community Day 2018 was fun!

[Troopers Steve Limani & Cliff Greenfield @PSPTroopAPIO]

Conducting traffic stops and managing crash scenes are especially dangerous duties for police officers and first responders, mainly due to intoxicated, inattentive, and distracted drivers. Watch your speed and steer clear!
