Alcester Fire Dept responded to a mutual aid call Sunday, May 2026 along with many (many) other departments for a grassfire near Burbank, SD. In rural areas it’s critical for enough water supply to contain a fire encroaching structures. Thank you to Hudson Fire And Rescue and Hawarden Fire & Rescue for staging at our station while we were called to service.

‼️‼️ ATTENTION RESIDENTS ‼️‼️
We care for your family and household during the cold weather, please remember to never plug a space heater into a power strip or extension cord. Space heaters require high, continuous power that standard power strips cannot handle, leading to overheating, melted plastic, and significant fire risks. Always plug heaters directly into a wall outlet to ensure safety and prevent electrical fires.

We’ll post photos in the comments section of melted extension cords, and power strips! 🤯
