Huge shoutout to the Carpentersville Professional Fire Fighters IAFF Local 4790 for making a little girls birthday so special today, amidst the shelter in place. Engine 92 rumbled down the street with lights blazing and they stopped in front of her home to give a proper birthday sound off! Smiles like this were just what we all needed today!

Hi,I was trying to in touch with the fire station on 55th street I’m Hyde Park. I have a package of N95 masks (opened, one removed from the package) and I was wondering if these were desirable? If so, I can drop them off.Thank you,Matthew Boltz
Excerpts from the sbsun.com:
To ensure uninterrupted service during the coronavirus pandemic, 18 fire departments in San Bernardino County, CA have joined under a regional management team, an action usually reserved for fighting large wildfires. The team was formed on March 6 to manage exposed and/or sick members of its agency, to ensure personnel have necessary personal protective equipment, and to maintain consistent communication.
Those agencies are now united to ensure consistent service regardless of jurisdiction. As the virus establishes itself within our county, citizens may see fire apparatus from other departments responding in their communities and even firefighters from different agencies on the same engine company.
