3 <br />Summer 2020 <br />Lake Elmo Fire Department Update <br />&29,'8SGDWH <br />Lake Elmo firefighters have been stepping up to the frontline of the <br />pandemic, working with neighbors and law enforcement to <br />respond at a moments notice to a record number of medical and <br />fire calls, participating in over 40 socially distanced birthday and <br />graduation celebrations, and keeping the department and its <br />equipment in working order. We are honored to step up and serve <br />our community, and we do so proudly. <br />Safe Haven <br />While the Safe Haven program had its challenges this past year, please know that we are still here and offer <br />services from basic 1st Aid and CPR training to an inspection of your home. We simply come in and offer <br />basic advice for fire prevention as needed. In many cases, we can even offer free products that can help <br />keep you and your family safe if you ever have that bad day. Our hope is that the only time you see a fire <br />truck is during a parade or when you visit the station, but if you ever need to call us, we want to make sure <br />you and your family are as safe as possible prior to and during that event. We can do that best through <br />edu-cation, prevention, and an ongoing partnership. That is exactly what Safe Haven is about. <br />FireI ighters <br />The lake Elmo Fire Department is recruiting Part Time Firefighters.
