One of our favorite community events is coming up Tuesday, August 4th at Anderson River Park. Bring your family, friends and neighbors and join us for National Night Out and Battle of the Badges.

Our wildland engine and crew responded yesterday to a grass fire along Dersch Road east of Deschutes Road. The fire was caused by a vehicle towing a trailer that was not properly secured, allowing it to create sparks as it traveled along the roadway. Thanks to the quick response and aggressive fire suppression the fire was contained.

This incident serves as an important reminder to always secure safety chains, properly hitch and secure trailers, and inspect your brakes, tires, wheels, bearings, and catalytic converter. Taking a few minutes to perform these safety checks can help prevent roadside fires and protect lives and property.

Since Saturday evening, we’ve been providing water tender support to the Brook Fire in the Bella Vista area of Shasta County. As of this morning, containment is over 50% with Cal Fire reporting that personnel continue to strengthen control lines and mop up the fire perimeter.

🚒 Mark your calendars! National Night Out is almost here!

Join the Anderson Fire Protection District, the Anderson Police Department, and many of our community partners on Tuesday, August 4 at the Anderson River Park Splash Pad for an evening of fun, connection, and community.

Come meet your local firefighters, explore our fire engines, learn about fire safety, and enjoy a great evening with family, friends, and neighbors. There will be food trucks, demonstrations, activities for all ages, and plenty of opportunities to connect with the people who serve our community every day.

We believe strong communities are built through strong relationships, and National Night Out is a wonderful opportunity to get to know one another outside of an emergency.

We can’t wait to see you there!
