We loved visiting with St. Paul Catholic School and getting a chance to spread to good word about CPR and AEDs! The students were excellent listeners, asked a ton of great questions, and had no problem taking the chance to practice CPR on our manikins. Thank you guys for the great opportunity. We’d love to come back and see everyone!

25 years later.

For some, September 11, 2001 is a memory. For others, it is a story we were told. And for a new generation of first responders, it is a legacy we carry.

Many of us were children that morning. Some of us weren’t even born yet. We didn’t hear the radio traffic. We didn’t watch the towers fall. We didn’t stand on the pile at Ground Zero. But we grew up hearing the names. We learned about the firefighters, paramedics, police officers, dispatchers, military members, and ordinary people who ran toward the danger when everyone else was trying to get away. And somewhere along the way, many of us made the decision to do the same.

We put on the uniform. We answered the tones. We climbed into ambulances, fire trucks, and patrol cars. We learned that the job isn’t about being fearless; it’s about showing up when someone else needs you… even when you’re afraid. We are the generation that inherited their story. And now, we are responsible for carrying it forward.

Twenty-five years later, we remember the 2,977 lives lost on September 11th, the countless responders and civilians whose lives were changed forever, and those who have since lost their lives or continue to suffer from the illnesses caused by their service in the aftermath. We may not have been there. But we remember. We honor. And we serve.

To the men and women who ran toward the smoke 25 years ago: thank you. Your courage helped define what it means to be a first responder. Your sacrifice became our responsibility. And as a new generation carries the torch, we promise:

We will never forget 09/11/01.

Please join us in welcoming two new members to Highland IAFF Local 3672!

We are incredibly proud to officially welcome Kaitlin Baker and Randilyn Kluemke to our Highland EMS family as they have both successfully completed their probationary periods!

Kaitlin Baker has been a paramedic for just over a year. A graduate of Lewis and Clark Community College, she began her career in Alton before transitioning to Staunton and eventually finding her way to Highland EMS. Kaitlin made history as our first transfer paramedic, and she has quickly become an important part of our team; not only working on our transfer unit, but also responding to 911 calls when the front-line truck is busy.

Outside of EMS, Kaitlin is a stepmom to two wonderful teenagers and the world’s best auntie to her three nieces and nephews. She brings an incredible passion for her career, a contagious personality, and a whole new energy to our station. We are lucky to have her!

Randilyn Kluemke has been a paramedic for just over four years. Originally from Texas, she has worked as a paramedic in both Texas and Arkansas, bringing a wealth of experience and knowledge with her to Highland EMS.

Outside of the ambulance, Randilyn is a proud mom to two beautiful daughters and an avid gardener. She brings kindness, compassion, and experience to our team, and we are excited to see all that she will continue to contribute to Highland EMS.

Please help us congratulate Kaitlin and Randilyn on completing their probation and officially becoming members of IAFF Local 3672! We are proud to have both of you on our team and can’t wait to see what the future holds!

Welcome to the family, ladies!

One Year Remembering Gavin

One year ago today, we lost our friend, our brother, and a member of our IAFF family, Gavin Schlarmann.

A year may have passed, but the pain of losing someone so special never truly disappears. Gavin left an impact on everyone fortunate enough to know him, and his memory continues to live on in the stories we share, the moments we remember, and the lives he touched. Today, the members of Highland IAFF Local 3672 pause to remember Gavin - not only for the loss we feel, but for the person he was, the friendship he gave, and the brotherhood he will always be a part of.

Though he may no longer be standing beside us, he will never be forgotten.

We remember. We honor. We carry you with us.

Live like Gavin.

Every year, emergency rooms treat thousands of people for fireworks-related injuries. Many victims don't suffer just one injury they experience multiple traumatic injuries, including severe burns, eye injuries, hand and finger amputations, hearing damage, and facial injuries that can have lifelong consequences.

This Independence Day, don't let a few minutes of excitement turn into a lifetime of recovery. Fireworks are not worth the risk.

🎆 Leave the fireworks to the professionals and enjoy a licensed public display instead. Protect yourself, your family, and your community by making safety your top priority this holiday.
