Today and Sunday, Loves Park Fire Department and North Park Fire Protection Dist. are conducting live fire training evolutions together. We appreciate being able to train and work so well with our neighbors. It was a beautiful day to get some evolutions in, especially for our newest members. Thanks also to Rockford Fire Department for the use of their facility. Edit: second group photo added of both department's members that trained Sunday.
Good job!!!
AYE!!!!! Nice
THANK U
This afternoon, while our ambulance was already tied up for an earlier medical transport, North Park Fire was dispatched for a cardiac arrest.
Because of our great automatic and mutual aid relationships, and our amazing Sheriff Winnebago County deputies and Mercyhealth Prehospital Services and REACT MD-1, we were collectively able to achieve ROSC (return of spontaneous circulation) and the patient was transported by a Loves Park ambulance.
During this call, we also had a report of a vehicle vs. house. Loves Park Fire Department, Northwest Fire Protection District and Northwest Rescue all responded to this scene to assist our district. Shortly after this call, North Park's ambulance cleared their original incident and handled a Loves Park transport.
Day in and day out - these types of occasions occur and regardless of jurisdictions or borders, North Park Fire Protection Dist. has some incredible neighbors and partners to insure the district's citizens are taken care of. Thanks to all of them for being great partners to work with.
Nice work to all!
As I listen to this day in and day out, I too feel great about our Community Fire Districts working so great together.

The North Park Fire Protection District thanks Shane at the Madison Aquatic Club for refusing to allow us to pay for these lockers we picked up last week. These will get a little re-finish to the doors and end up as lockers for our personnel in our bunk rooms in the new station.
New, similar ready to assemble lockers would have cost the district well over $10,000 with freight costs. Shane's and MAC's donation is huge as the district works hard to be good stewards of taxpayer money. Thanks so much!
You are very welcome! We are happy to help out and contribute to a great organization. We know what it's like trying to build a new facility when every dollar counts! Best of luck to you all.
