Even on busy days and in between calls, our firefighters always make an effort to connect with our youngest citizens. There were smiles all around at the Mel Korum YMCA Summer Camp with Engine 72. ☀️🚒

A huge thank you to The Soup Ladies, who fed the crews from Central Pierce Fire & Rescue, South Pierce Fire and Rescue, East Pierce Fire & Rescue, and Browns Point Fire Department at the 129th fire in Graham last week. The members of this nonprofit organization have a heart of gold, and our... first responders are so grateful for them! ❤

Willow the Weimy is here to share an important message for National Pet Fire Safety Day! 🔥

🐾 Curious and clumsy pets cause an average of 750 home fires per year.
🐾 Keep candles and other open flames away from where wagging tails and rambunctious paws can’t knock them ...over.
🐾 Exposed wires can easily become a chew toy for mischievous doggos and kittens, make sure they’re secured and out of reach from your pets.
🐾 Sadly, about 40,000 pets die in home fires each year.
🐾 Include your pet in your home fire escape plan.
🐾 Know where your pet likes to hide when they get scared and how to get them out of that spot quickly.
🐾 Ensure that your pet is wearing a collar and is microchipped so you can easily locate a lost pet that escapes during a fire.

During a fire, your first priority should always be to escape the home quickly. If you’re unable to locate your pet quickly, leave your door open and call for them once you are outside and a safe distance away from the fire. When firefighters arrive, inform them that your pet is still inside so they can continue to look for your pet.
