Wednesday’s are for training🚑🚒 we hope that we never have to extricate patients from a critical car accident, but unfortunately it happens in our line of work. We want to stay prepared and be prepared to help our patients in the safest way possible. Shout out to YAFD for coming over and hanging out with us! It’s always a good time!

🌧️ We’re looking for new volunteer rain observers in Cass County, Indiana, especially in and around the Logansport, Royal Center, Lucerne, Twelve Mile, New Waverly, Walton, Galveston areas.

Right now, there is limited rainfall reporting coverage in the county, which creates gaps in local data used for forecasting, drought monitoring, agriculture, and much more.

📏 It’s simple to help:

Take a quick daily precipitation measurement
Submit it online (about a minute)
Make a real impact in your community

👉 Apply here: https://www.cocorahs.org/application.aspx

Local organizations in the Bainbridge area—libraries, fire departments, 4-H, agricultural groups, and community organizations—we’d greatly appreciate your help sharing this to help fill this important gap in coverage.
