Much like everyone else, our crew was able to go out and see Big Boy as it came through the area yesterday. Talk about a once in a lifetime photo.

Personnel had the privilege to go out and support the Conerns of Police Survivors (COPS) Cycle across Illinois bike ride today. For many years Lincoln Rural has opened our doors to provide a place for the riders lunch break. This year the lunch was moved to Jefferson Street Christian Church. Even with the move, our personnel were asked to come out and still support the riders. The ride started in Edwardsville and will end in Chicago. The ride raises funds and awareness to help support families of fallen officers. We would like to extend well wishes and a safe remainder of the trip for all the riders and support members.

Wishing everyone a safe and Happy 4th of July

We would like to extend our thanks and gratitude to Martin Grain Farms and Chris Martin for their donation of a Hy-Conn hydrant adapter. Adapters are needed to connect our supply hoses to fire hydrants. This new adapter is a new design quick connector which will allow personnel to connect to the hydrant faster than traditional threaded adapters. Martin Grain Farms generosity to the district is very much appreciated. Pictured is Chief Chris Buse and Chris Martin.

At 1435 on 4/8/26, Lincoln Rural along with mutual aid departments were dispatched to a residence in the 1400 block of 1000th St for a report of a patio/deck that was attached to the residence, on fire. First arriving units found the fire beginning to extend into the back side of the home. The bulk of the fire was brought under control followed by extensive overhaul to the burnt area. Neither the occupants or any personnel were injured during the incident. We would like to thank our mutual aid assistance from Lincoln City, Atlanta, Beason, Mount Pulaski, Chestnut and LCPA.
