“AT 788 FEET OF VERTICAL ELEVATION, THE COLUMBIA CENTER IN DOWNTOWN SEATTLE STANDS AS THE SECOND TALLEST BUILDING WEST OF THE MISSISSIPPI, AND THE TALLEST IN SEATTLE. IT TAKES 69 FLOORS OF STAIRS AND 1,356 STEPS TO REACH THE HIGHLY ACCLAIMED SKY VIEW OBSERVATORY OVERLOOKING THE EMERALD CITY. ON MARCH 12TH, 2,000 FIREFIGHTERS FROM ACROSS THE UNITED STATES AND AROUND THE WORLD ASCEND THE TOWER TO SUPPORT THE MISSION OF THE LEUKEMIA & LYMPHOMA SOCIETY.

We are already half way through Fire Prevention Mo

We are already half way through Fire Prevention Month! Every year during the month of October, departments across the nation reach out to their local communities to raise awareness regarding fire safety. Last week, CVFRD celebrated Fire Prevention Week by making our way through local elementary schools to spread the message “fire won’t wait, plan your escape.”

Always ensure all adults & kiddos know two ways out of every room in the home, always have a meeting place outside, & remember to regularly practice your family’s escape plan so you can be prepared in the event of an emergency!

Today is CVFRD’s annual open house at Station 35

Open house: noon-4pm @ St 35 (14080 Old Glenn Hwy)

Scott McClain was a volunteer with CVFRD for many

Scott McClain was a volunteer with CVFRD for many years, & also worked as a career Firefighter for @anchoragefiredept before his passing in 2020 due to job related cancer. A memorial fund in Scott’s honor was just formed to help offset the cost of fuel spent by our volunteers to get to and from trainings & shifts. This fund is supplied with 14 months worth of $100 fuel cards, one to be given out each month at a training to a dedicated Chugiak volunteer! Congratulations to Firefighter Phipps for being the first winner of the gas card training giveaway!

A special thank you to Clint Seegers from Vitus Energy for his generous additional donation to this fund 🤗

This Saturday, July 30th, governor Dunlevy signed CCS SB 131, the Presumptive Cancer Bill, into law. This is an Act that offers additional protections for Alaska firefighters relating to the presumption of compensability for disabilities resulting from certain cancers, & also outlines additional workers’ comp benefits.

CVFRD was grateful to have the opportunity to attend the event at @girdwood_fire Department. To everyone who had a hand in getting this bill passed, all Alaskan firefighters thank you!! 🤗
