🚗🌡️ May 1 is National Heatstroke Prevention Day

Heatstroke is one of the leading causes of non-crash, vehicle-related deaths for children. Since 1998, over 1,000 children have tragically lost their lives in hot cars.

The good news: these tragedies are 100% preventable.

Let’s work together to spread awareness and protect our children:
✔️ Always check the back seat before locking your car
✔️ Never leave a child unattended in a vehicle
✔️ Keep cars locked and keys out of reach

🚒👏 Congratulations to our outstanding CTA Cadets! 👏🚒

We are incredibly proud of our two cadets who competed in the State SkillsUSA Firefighting Competition held in Carroll County, MD on April 18, 2026. Throughout the competition, they were tested on essential firefighting skills such as ladder throws, victim drags, rope tying, and more—demonstrating exceptional professionalism, courage, and pride every step of the way.

Please join us in celebrating their amazing achievements:
🥇 Oliver Fox – Gold Medalist in Firefighting
🥉 Ryan King – Bronze Medalist in Firefighting

We are excited to cheer on Oliver as he advances to the National SkillsUSA Competition in Atlanta, Georgia this June!

These cadets have truly shown what it means to strive for excellence—not only in firefighting skills but also in their academic dedication. We couldn’t be prouder of their hard work and commitment.

Congratulations, Oliver and Ryan, on a job well done! 🎉🔥
