Five years! 🎉

Today marks TECC’s 5th anniversary.

It’s pretty incredible to look back at where we started in 2021 and how much has changed since then. We’ve grown, taken on new challenges, welcomed some great people to our team, and somehow five years have come and gone.

We are incredibly proud of what we’ve built and even more proud of the people who make TECC what it is every single day.

Happy 5 years, TECC!

Thank you to Champions Emergency Services District, Harris County ESD 16 - Klein Fire Department, Cypress Creek Fire Department / Harris County ESD 13, Ponderosa Fire Department, Spring Fire Department, Jersey Village Fire Department, Harris County ESD 11 Mobile Healthcare, Greater Harris County 911 Emergency Network, and everyone who took the time to celebrate National Telecommunicator’s Week with us! We appreciate you all!

National Telecommunicators Week is a time to recognize the 911 dispatchers behind the scenes who answer the call when it matters most.

Every day, our dispatchers show up ready to handle the unexpected. They are the first, first responders, and their impact is felt in every call they take.

This week, we celebrate the dedication and heart they bring to this job. It is not easy work, but they do it well and with a true commitment to serving others.

To our team and telecommunicators everywhere, thank you for what you do every single day. This week is for you!

We know America’s 250th birthday is coming up… but I don’t think this is what they meant by “starting the celebration early.” 🇺🇸

All jokes aside, fireworks can turn dangerous fast. Please leave it to the professionals, keep a safe distance, and never store or light fireworks near buildings or other hazards. Celebrations should end with memories, not emergencies.

HUGE shoutout to our dispatchers working this incident and the Spring Fire Department, Harris County ESD 16 - Klein Fire Department, Harris County ESD 11 Mobile Healthcare, The Woodlands Fire Department, Champions Emergency Services District, Magnolia Fire Department, and South Montgomery County Fire Department.

Congratulations, Chief Spitzenberger on your retirement! Thank you for serving the Ponderosa community for more than 44 years.

Yesterday, the Spring community lost a true hero, W. W. “Cotton” Weaver. Cotton dedicated his life to serving others. He was one of the original volunteers who helped start the Spring Fire Department in 1953 and dedicated more than 30 years of service to Cypress Creek EMS as a volunteer. He served as Fire Chief, a respected leader, and a mentor to generations of firefighters and EMTs.

Cotton devoted his life to service, both on the fireground and in EMS. He led by example and left a lasting impact on everyone who had the privilege of working with him. His influence is still felt today throughout the department he helped build and the generations of firefighters and EMTs he inspired.

He will be deeply missed, but his legacy will live on. We take comfort in knowing he has been reunited with his wife, Barbara, and many fellow firefighters and EMTs who were surely waiting to welcome him home.

Rest easy, Chief. Thank you for everything.

Merry Christmas to all and to all a good night! 🎄
