We have a forecast for wintery weather today, a mix of snow and sleet. Here are some safety tips to tackle the winter weather:

❄️Please drive slowly and carefully as the roads may be slick.

☃️Make sure your windows are all cleared before driving!

🌨 Put salt or sand down on your drive ways to prevent slipping.

🌬Help your elderly or differently abled neighbors by shoveling their driveways and checking on them.

(This picture is a throwback to a past snowstorm in Ashburn)

As a PSA, this is not how to invite us to your Thanksgiving celebration. If you choose to deep fry follow the directions and ensure that your turkey is fully defrosted. Be safe! #AVFRD #neighborshelpingneighbors #volunteerfireandrescue #thanksgiving #deepfryturkeyfail

As National Teens Don’t Text and Drive Week (National Safety Council) starts today lets all remind ourselves of the dangers of distracted driving. LCSO and the Loudoun County Fire and Rescue/Loudoun County Volunteer Fire-Rescue urges parents take a look at their own driving habits, as well as stress the importance of distraction-free driving to their teens. Driving is a serious responsibility. #safedrivers #donttextanddrive #AVRFD #volunteerfireandrescue #volunteerfirefighters #volunteerEMS #neighborshelpingneighbors #LCSO #FirstResponders

Our community is mourning the loss of Lifetime Mem

Our community is mourning the loss of Lifetime Member Jerry "Catfish" Earnest who passed away on October 25, 2020. Jerry served as a Fire Sergeant and Chief Engineer. Catfish (as he was known) enjoyed nothing more than being with his Tuesday night duty crew and the “day crew” of Lieutenant Dan, Ray, Jr., and Anne Marie. When not firefighting, he always gave freely of his time at the station whether it be for open houses, pancake breakfasts, oyster dinners, or driving Santa around on the big rig to pass out candy during the Christmas holidays. Jerry was honored to have been chosen for the Costello Award as Volunteer Firefighter of the Year in 1996. In 2008, he was inducted as a lifetime member of the Department.

Sometimes we have the privilege to meet heroes of a different type. Quinn, was just released from John’s Hopkins, where he was receiving treatment for Osteosarcoma. To welcome him home Belmont Station Middle School held a celebration complete with Star Wars characters, sky writers and our engine! Truthfully, not sure our engine could compete with the coolness of a Wookiee. Help us wish this sweet boy good health and continued healing!
