Carbon monoxide responses are easy to treat like routine calls. Most of the time, we are dispatched for an alarm activation, a beeping detector, or a vague report of someone “not feeling well.” There is no smoke showing, no visible hazard, and no obvious emergency from the street.

     What a past month it has been! If you remember the movie, “Back to the Future” with Michael J. Fox and Christopher Lloyd they traveled back and forward in time.

While teaching a recent Firefighter One program I heard one of my students say something that made me smile. “Let’s break something”. These words are spoken as a true firefighter would use them.

     Alyssa and I are still working busily on membership dues. Thank you all so much for getting them in to the office promptly!

The Battle Creek Volunteer did a controlled burn of approximately 80 acres on Saturday, March 13.   Weather conditions were perfect. Photos submitted by Marlene Bomar.
