Training is a huge part of being a firefighter and a major part of The Ridgway Volunteer Fire Department. As such, here are a few of our firefighters (in black) participating in an extrication training last Thursday during a course offered to us by the Telluride Fire Department. #telluridefiredepartment

This weekend is the Arts and Crafts Festival, which ALSO means it's our annual Pancake Breakfast and Silent Auction!! Breakfast is from 7:30 to 10:30 both Saturday and Sunday 🥞🍳🥞 at the Fire Station.

Bidding for the Silent Auction begins at 9 on Saturday and ends at 3pm on Sunday. It is at the Fire Station as well! We have lots of great items donated by many wonderful local businesses for your bidding pleasure!

AND... Don't forget about the kids train rides - a fundraiser that also benefits the Voyager Youth Program. Our firefighters will be driving your kiddos around the park during the festival both Saturday and Sunday so you can shop at the festival and come bid on some great items! $3 for a single ride and $20 for a weekend pass.

We can't wait to see you this weekend at the Firehouse next to Hartwell Park!!

Last night our firefighters responded to a small brush fire caused by a lightning strike. They hiked over a half mile through rugged and dense terrain before extinguishing it.

As we continue to enjoy our afternoon and evening thundershowers and reap the benefits of a heavy winter's past, keep in mind that lightning strikes as well as other hazardous conditions and actions can still cause fires.
