🌞Heat Alert! 🌞
Today is predicted to be extremely hot, with temperatures soaring to uncomfortable levels. It is important to prioritize your safety and well-being during this weather. Here are some safety precautions to keep in mind:
1. Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water throughout the day, even if you don’t feel thirsty. Avoid excessive caffeine and alcohol.
2. Limit Outdoor Activities: If possible, stay indoors during peak heat hours, usually between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. If you must be outside, take frequent breaks in the shade.
3. Wear Appropriate Clothing: Light, loose-fitting clothing in lighter colors can help keep your body cool. Don’t forget your sunglasses and a wide-brimmed hat!
4. Use Sunscreen: Protect your skin from harmful UV rays with a high-SPF sunscreen. Apply it generously and reapply every two hours.
5. Check on Others: Keep an eye on friends, family, and neighbors, especially the elderly or those with health issues. Make sure they are coping with the heat.
And as always, stay safe and cool out there!! ☀️🚑🚒

Last Friday, members from Clarendon County Fire Rescue attended summer camp at Unity Christian Church. This was a great opportunity for us to meet with the community and share what firefighters do. We discussed fire safety, prevention tips, and the importance of our jobs in protecting people and property. We enjoyed our discussions and demonstrations to help everyone understand how to stay safe from fires.
Events like this help build stronger connections between first responders and our community. If you would like to learn more about any specific topics, reach out to us!

Thank you for all that you do.
Outstanding….a lot of hard & dedicated work! CONGRATULATIONS!!
Today, we pause to honor and remember the nine brave Charleston firefighters who made the ultimate sacrifice in the line of duty during the tragic Super Sofa Store fire on June 18, 2007. Their courage, selflessness, and unwavering commitment to protecting others will never be forgotten.
As we reflect on this solemn anniversary, may we carry forward their legacy with pride and gratitude, always remembering the cost of service and the strength of our fire service family. Let us never forget their names, their heroism, and the profound impact they left on our community.❤️
