Today our members had the honor of participating in the American Heart Association Heart Walk at Pocotaligo River Health and Rehab.
This is an event we proudly support each year and value the positive impact it has on the community. It is always rewarding to come together to raise awareness for heart health and support such an important cause. ❤️🚒🚑
We would like to give a special thank you to Christina for the invitation- we always appreciate the opportunity to be involved. It was great to see familiar faces and spend time with our community partners outside of emergency calls.

SCFC to lift burning ban for all counties Friday: Officials urge vigilance while burning outdoors as drought conditions persist
COLUMBIA—The South Carolina Forestry Commission will lift the State Forester’s Burning Ban for all counties, effective at 7 a.m., Friday, May 1.
Agency officials believe the combination of rain, elevated relative humidity, improved overnight recovery and a lack of significant wind in the forecast warrant removing all remaining counties from outdoor burning restrictions.
“Many areas of the state have seen rainfall this week, and higher relative humidity and fuel moisture continue to mitigate significant fire potential,” said SCFC Fire Chief Darryl Jones. “Though we expect even more rain across more of the state in the next week, people who choose to burn outdoors should still exercise vigilance as the rain we have received has not changed the state’s drought status.”
