Today we honor the brave heroes who gave everything for our freedom.
Their courage, sacrifice, and love for the nation will never be forgotten.

As the flags wave and hearts unite in remembrance, let us take a moment to thank all the men and women who served and sacrificed.

This week we recognize and thank the EMS professionals who answer the call every day — providing care, comfort, and lifesaving service when our community needs it most.

This group isn’t just responders, they’re neighbors, friends, parents, coaches, and familiar faces our community trusts on their worst days. For the volunteers, we’re thankful to have people who care for the community they serve.

Happy National EMS Week! 🚑

Happy Mother’s Day to all our wonderful mothers out there! We appreciate you all so much!

Happy Mother’s Day to every woman who nurtures, leads, protects, teaches, supports, and shows up with strength and care — in families, friendships, communities, and crews.

Today we celebrate mothers, stepmothers, grandmothers, chosen mothers, mentors, caregivers, and all women whose impact helps others grow and thrive. Your resilience, compassion, and fire make a difference every day.

We also hold space for those grieving a mother or child, navigating loss, estrangement, infertility, or longing to become mothers. You are seen, valued, and not alone today.

Wishing you a day filled with appreciation, gentleness, love, and recognition. 💛🔥

DFD had the opportunity during last weeks training to conduct a commercial vehicle extrication.

The training involved how to safely remove an individual from a damaged vehicle using specialized tools like hydraulic cutters, spreaders, and rams to breach reinforced structures. While flipping the truck to practice different scenarios.

Thank you to Beaver Creek Transport and North Star Training & Consulting!
