💧HYDRATE A FIREMAN WATER DRIVE💧

The Collinsville Fire Department would like to extend a HUGE THANK YOU to Pirate Island for hosting the Hydrate a Fireman Water Drive, and to everyone in our community who participated and donated!

The cases of water and sports drinks collected through this drive provide an important resource for our firefighters, especially during the hot Texas months, long-duration incidents, and physically demanding emergency responses.

💧 WHY HYDRATION MATTERS

Proper hydration plays an important role in firefighter health, safety, and readiness. These donations help our firefighters:

🚒 Hydrate before emergency calls, helping ensure our crews are properly hydrated and ready when the alarm sounds.

🔥 Maintain hydration during emergency incidents, especially while working in extreme heat, wearing full protective gear, and performing physically demanding operations.

💪 Rehydrate after an emergency, helping firefighters replace fluids lost during strenuous operations and the recovery process.

🧯 Support firefighter safety and readiness, adequate hydration is an important part of helping our crews safely perform their duties before, during, and after emergency incidents.

Most importantly, this water drive is another great example of our community supporting the men and women who serve it. Every case of water, every sports drink, and every donation makes a difference.

Thank you, Pirate Island, for hosting this event, and thank you to everyone who came out and supported our firefighters!

Your generosity helps keep our firefighters hydrated, healthy, and ready to answer the call when our community needs us.
