Winner! This grumpy face behind this mustache belongs to Capt. Harris. Don't let him fool you - he's not that grumpy (most of the time). He should be happy today - holding bragging rights for the year to come.

Harris is one of our department's Peer Support Team members, in place to promote good mental health and well being among the ranks of the department. While this fierce battle of growing mustaches has ended, these guys are here to make sure there are ways to cope with a job that can be stressful every day. Thanks to Responder 1st for providing necessary training and certification to the team, and for working to help all first responders find their way through the tough stuff.

Cold is coming tonight and tomorrow morning - are you ready for it? Here's some quick reminders for when the temps drop:

SPACE HEATERS — Be sure you are using an appropriate cord and outlet for that specific heater. Do not overload your outlets. Place heaters away from anything combustible, such as blankets or rugs.
FIREPLACE ASHES — Store them in a METAL container with a lid until they are completely extinguished. It's a good idea to put water on them also, and never store them near your home or on your deck. Don't ever put them in anything but metal, such as a cardboard box.
YOUR OVEN — This appliance was not designed to heat your home, and could cause injury or damage to your home or appliance if used in this way.
CARBON MONOXIDE — Carbon monoxide is a tasteless, odorless gas that is produced by anything that produces a flame. If you keep warm by the use of a fireplace, wood burning or gas, be sure you have working carbon monoxide detectors in your home to alert you of any issues.
❄️
Other things to think about: Have you had your chimney cleaned by a licensed company? Have you filled your propane tanks? Have you brought your pets inside when it's too cold for them outside?
❄️
As always, check on your neighbors if you think they need it. Call us with any other questions or concerns - 479-855-8249.
