Foothills Fire & Rescue

🇺🇸 REMEMBERING 9/11 — NEVER FORGET 🇺🇸

This Friday, September 11th, some of our Foothills Fire & Rescue firefighters, along with family members, will be participating in the 9/11 Stair Climb at Red Rocks Amphitheatre.

They will climb in honor and remembrance of the 343 firefighters and 2,977 people who lost their lives on September 11, 2001, and to remember the incredible courage and sacrifice of the first responders who ran toward danger while others were running away.

This climb is more than just climbing stairs. It is a way to honor those who made the ultimate sacrifice, remember the families who lost loved ones, and ensure that their stories are never forgotten.

The climb also helps raise donations to support the National Fallen Firefighters Foundation, helping provide resources and support to the families of fallen firefighters and to honor the legacy of those who gave everything.

We are incredibly proud of our firefighters and their families for taking part in this meaningful event. ❤️🚒

Please join us in remembering, honoring, and saying their names.

September 11, 2001 — We Will Never Forget. 🇺🇸

Chief Cameron deployed to the Aspen Acres Fire on June 29th as a Task Force Leader. During his few days there he assisted with structure protection and even worked night operations.

As of July 5th the fire is at 13% containment. It is likely that we will be sending more resources to help after the 4th of July Holiday.

Be sure to call the firework hotline to report fireworks. If you have an actual emergency please call 911

Please be aware that we are now in Stage 2 fire ban. Be safe this Fourth of July

STAGE 2 FIRE BAN

Sheriff Reggie Marinelli has ordered a Stage 2 Fire Ban for unincorporated Jefferson County effective 8:00 a.m. on Thursday, July 2.

ALL FIREWORKS are illegal during the Stage 2 Fire Ban. This includes fireworks that may otherwise be considered legal.

Since Stage 1 Fire Restrictions went into effect Monday, fire conditions have continued to worsen. Regional and national preparedness levels have increased, Red Flag conditions have continued with no significant weather relief in the forecast, and measured Energy Release Component values in the southern third of the county have reached the 90th percentile. The northern two-thirds of the county are trending in the same direction.

These factors, along with the conditions that triggered Stage 1 Fire Restrictions, make this move necessary.

All counties and federal jurisdictions adjacent to Jefferson County to the north, west, and south will also be under Stage 2 Fire Ban conditions.

This is not the time to take chances. Follow the fire ban. Do not risk starting a wildfire.
