Today we pause to remember the events of September 11, 2001—a day that forever changed our nation and our profession.

For those of us in EMS, the images and stories from that day hit especially close to home. We remember the brave first responders—paramedics, EMTs, firefighters, police officers, and countless others—who ran toward danger with unwavering courage, many of whom never made it back. Their sacrifice is a reminder of the weight and honor of the uniform we wear.
Twenty-four years later, we carry their legacy forward every time we answer a call. We serve in their memory, with the same commitment to protecting and helping others in their darkest moments.

May we never forget their bravery, their sacrifice, and the resilience that rose from the ashes of that day. 🇺🇸🚑

Visit 6! Today I visited Lanesborough Police and met Officer Pierce and EMT Paxton Strout of Lanesborough Ambulance. I loved having the chance to meet them both today and spend some time chatting with them both. I gave them some of my patches made by Dirty Water Collectibles . In return, I got a Lanesborough Ambulance hat, Lanesborough patch and challenge coin. Thank you both for taking the time to meet me today. Stay Safe Always!

Ever wonder why you see our ambulance and crew out grocery shopping while on duty? Our EMS staff often work 16 hour shifts at a time, living together for a third of their time. This includes shopping for food, preparing, and sharing meals. They’re a family, and like any family, they need to eat!

It's important to note that our crews pool their own money every shift to share meals. But they are always ready! We use the ambulance so we can respond promptly! So often, meals get interrupted during shopping, prepping, and eating.

Though we love to visit local restaurants it can become very costly to do so for every meal so we are so lucky to have Target so they can we not only shop for our EMS family meals but, also visit with members of our community. Please don’t hesitate to give us a wave or come say hi! We usually need help figuring out what to eat! Maybe you can help!
