Brooks High School is fired up to announce Mike Horton as the next Head Coach of Brooks Lions Football!

Coach Horton brings passion, toughness, energy, and a championship mindset to the Lions program. A former offensive lineman at University of North Alabama from 2005-2009, Coach Horton knows what it takes to compete at a high level and build a winning culture through hard work, discipline, and accountability.

Coach Horton spent 11 seasons at Florence High School, including 10 years as offensive line coach and one season coaching outside linebackers. Throughout his career, he has built a reputation for developing physical, disciplined football teams and investing deeply in the lives of his players.

For the past four seasons, Coach Horton has served as Offensive Coordinator at Brooks High School, helping lead one of the area’s most explosive offenses. Under his leadership, the Lions averaged 36, 40, 37, and 33 points per game while helping multiple student-athletes earn opportunities to continue their football careers at the collegiate level.

More than wins and points, Coach Horton is passionate about developing young men, building relationships, and creating a culture that the Brooks community can be proud of. His vision, leadership, and love for Brooks make him the right man to lead this program into the future.

Please join us in welcoming Coach Mike Horton, his wife Jenny, and their daughters Maylen, Maggie, and Millie as the new First Family of Brooks Lions Football!

The future is bright. Go Lions!

April 27, 2011 — a day Alabama will never forget.
Today we pause to remember the lives lost, the families forever changed, and the communities that were torn apart during the devastating tornado outbreak that swept across our state. It’s hard to put into words the scale of destruction and heartbreak that day brought, but it’s just as important to remember the strength that rose from it.
Many of us remember exactly where we were that day — the calls that kept coming, the long hours, the destruction that seemed endless. We also remember the strength that followed. Neighbors helping neighbors, departments standing side by side, and communities coming together in ways we will never forget.
We remember the first responders who ran toward danger, the neighbors who became family, and the countless acts of courage and kindness that followed in the days, weeks, and months after. In the face of unimaginable loss, Alabama stood together — and that spirit still lives on today.
To those we lost: you are not forgotten.
To the survivors: your strength continues to inspire.
To everyone who answered the call: thank you.
Hold your loved ones a little closer today. Remember where you were, honor those affected, and never take a single day for granted.

📢With worsening drought conditions across the state and low relative humidity, State Forester Rick Oates has issued a statewide Fire Alert effective immediately.

Over the past weekend, 50 wildfires burned more than 2,300 acres of forestland across the state. This includes a 500-acre wildfire in Mobile County, one for 412 acres in Coosa County, one for 382 acres in Choctaw County, one for 260 acres in Washington County, and another one for 105 acres in Escambia County.

In the last 30 days, 387 wildfires have burned approximately 15,850 acres of forestland across the state.

“With no measurable rain in sight, the continued extremely dry conditions create dangerous wildfire behavior,” said Oates. “These conditions create the potential for fires to escape easily and spread rapidly, taking longer and more of the agency’s firefighting resources to contain. Fast-moving wildfires not only destroy property and forests but also threaten the lives of citizens and endanger firefighters.”

This Fire Alert will remain in effect until rescinded by the State Forester, at least through Monday, April 20. Conditions will be reevaluated at that time. Permits for outdoor burning will be restricted only to Certified Prescribed Burn Managers. Anyone who burns a field, grassland, or woodland without a burn permit may be subject to prosecution for committing a Class B misdemeanor.

The Alabama Forestry Commission is the state agency committed to protecting Alabama’s invaluable forest assets and its citizens. To report a wildfire, call (800) 392-5679. For more information on the current wildfire situation in the state or any other forestry-related issues, contact your local AFC office or visit the agency website at www.forestry.alabama.gov

🚨📞 National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week 📞🚨
This week, we recognize the calm voices behind the chaos — our 911 dispatchers. While we’re responding on the road, they’re the ones gathering critical information, coordinating resources, and keeping everyone safe and informed.
They are the first first responders — the steady voice in someone’s worst moment, the link between the public and emergency crews, and a vital part of every call we run.
From early mornings to late nights, high stress calls to routine ones, they never miss a beat. Their professionalism, dedication, and heart do not go unnoticed.
To all of our telecommunicators: THANK YOU for everything you do for our department and our community. We couldn’t do this job without you.

🚨❄️ SLIP ‘N SLIDE SEASON HAS ARRIVED ❄️🚨
Folks, Mother Nature hit the “ice” button hard. At this time all roads are iced over and basically auditioning for Disney on Ice — which means they are impassable and unsafe.
If you don’t have to go out, don’t. Your car may think it’s a sled, but we promise it’s not built for that sport. 😅
Unless it’s an emergency, STAY OFF THE ROADS. We’re already seeing dangerous conditions and it doesn’t take much speed to lose control.
If you absolutely must travel, crawl, not cruise, and give emergency crews plenty of room to work.
We’d much rather see you safe at home than sliding into our call list.
Stay smart. Stay warm. Stay put.
