Congratulations to Firefighter/Paramedic Eric Hall on 8 Years with the Bloomington Fire Department. Eric was also recently appointed as Local 49's Union President. He selflessly puts in a lot of volunteer hours in this role so please help us congratulate him on his time served!

Last night we responded to a downed tree limb on Lincoln St that took down a power line. The reason this is news worthy is that this tree is one of the oldest in Bloomington. As the story goes Abraham Lincoln stood by this tree and spoke on one of his trips through Bloomington.

Not only do our firefighters look pretty in pink and are SUPER excited to wear their new shirts but they want to remind everyone that October is breast cancer awareness month. Remember that early detection is the key to survival.

Anybody else miss those summer staples like Ice Cream trucks, Pool Days, Lemonade stands, water balloons, or running barefoot to see a fire engine! Ok Maybe the last one isnt a staple. But we still miss seeing everyone. Don't forget you can always come tour a fire station!
