Red Lights For Firefighters - News, Health and Safety

Hey everybody this, is Anna. I wanted to take the time to explain why there has been a gap in content.

A few months ago, our entire system experienced a catastrophic security breach. We lost access to everything, only some stuff was accessible.

As we are a small business, we cannot afford to pay for assistance, nor replace our systems. All we can do, is slowly try to fix things as best we can.

I did want to personally thank each and every one of you for your support. Even those on our pages, thank you. Its been a very difficult time, but I was not about to give up.

I can’t promise much, but we will try to be back up and running by summer or so. We want to separate the post again and add more features too.

Thank you again.

Anna
