It is with heavy hearts that we announce the unexpected passing of Lt.Phil Bender earlier today. Phil has been a member of @florencekyfire for 10 years where he has been asssigned to E-103. He was a selfless public servant and will be greatly missed.
Thanks to Chief Todd Whitaker of @ErlangerFire for teaching the Youth Leadership Academy today as the students learned about restraint. The next class is on Wednesday, November 20 from 3:30pm-5:30pm at the city building.
Just a reminder: We are collecting coats at both fire stations for the annual coat drive. Please feel free to stop by and drop off unwanted coats in the provided barrels.
We appreciate you!
