First burn day of the Orange County Fire Academy. A fire academy ran locally to get local volunteers up to TCFP certification. We are thankful for the 20 local volunteers who took time out of their busy lives to help further their education and 100s of hours of class work and skills training to help ensure the citizens of our county are better protected!

At approximately 5:30 on Saturday July 12th we were dispatched to a reported structure fire. Upon arrival heavy smoke conditions were seen our crews made an interior attack while mutual aide units arrived on scene. With the help of all involved the fire was quickly brought under control. All residents safely made it out of the structure before our arrival. We would like to thank the neighboring departments that responded with us and gave us assistance.
