ANNOUNCEMENTS

  • The weather has definitely gotten warm quickly, so please make sure you stay well hydrated!!
  • All personnel – when fueling trucks or gas cans, please make sure you write the truck number and your name on the receipt you hand in. This makes for better accountability for all. Also, make sure you put the gas card back in the truck!
  • Great job on the two water calls we had this month already. Rigby folks thinking outside the box on getting the patient to the dry canal bank – always something new!
  • Ririe and Rigby did a great job working together on the mobile home fire June 6th. It is not often firefighters can save a mobile home from burning completely down. Well done!
  • Congratulations to Steven Holm and Shelby Robertson from station 2. Both recently passed their EMT exams and will be getting their licenses soon!
