Announcements
The "Training
Page" has been updated with MANY upcoming classes, including
Firefighter 1 and 2, BVR, and EMT.
Freeport VFD/EMS is
ALWAYS in need of good volunteers to help the community! Without a strong
volunteer base, the department would not be able to function in the capacity
that it does today. Lack of volunteers means longer response times and inadequate
manpower on scene, which results in increased property damage, worsened
injury, or even loss of life. In the end, a lack of volunteers means the
community suffers. Help keep this necessary organization running the way the
community NEEDS it to run, and join us! See our "Volunteer
Today!" page for more information!

Remember to Change your
Smoke Detector Batteries
11/5/11: Reminder
that this weekend is "fall back"! When you change your clocks,
remember to change your smoke detector and CO alarm batteries. Use that

your fire evacuation plans with the family! Statistics show that the chance
of a fire fatality can be cut in half with working smoke detectors. In the
last year, Station 70 responded to two fires in Freeport where smoke
detectors alerted the occupants to the fires while they were asleep! This
goes to show that detectors really do save lives!
