DUMONT DUNES | BRINGING EMERGENCY RESOURCES CLOSER
Remote does not mean forgotten. Over Halloween weekend, San Bernardino County Fire positioned personnel, ambulances and all-terrain rescue vehicles at Dumont Dunes to support visitors in this remote desert recreation area.
County Fire worked alongside the Bureau of Land Management, with deployment funding supported in part by a California State Parks OHMVR grant. Crews provided fire protection, emergency medical care and rescue services during the busy weekend.
In our outlying areas, distance and terrain shape the work. Special-event coverage brings personnel and equipment closer to where people are gathering, helping crews reach emergencies in places far beyond a neighborhood street.
Local 935 is proud of the members who serve our desert communities and visitors, and of the partnerships that support that work.
A look back at Halloween weekend coverage, not a current incident.

APPARATUS SPOTLIGHT | MEDIC ENGINE 44 | TWENTYNINE PALMS
Photo credit: @ietoocfirephotos
Medic Engine 44 is part of the fire service serving Twentynine Palms. Its home is Station 44 at 6560 Adobe Road.
Twentynine Palms lies within the Mojave Desert. The surrounding region combines open desert with mountain ranges, a distinctive setting for the communities our firefighters serve.
Fleet standardization helps us maintain consistency in emergency-vehicle equipment while different apparatus serve different needs. Different apparatus still have distinct designs and purposes.
From the station address to the number on the cab, we want you to recognize your local firefighters and the apparatus in your community.
Have you seen Engine 44 around Twentynine Palms? What station would you like us to highlight next?
Photos: @ietoocfirephotos. Thank you for showcasing County Fire apparatus.

HAPPY HALLOWEEN FROM LOCAL 935 🎃
To the little monsters, the last-minute costume makers and the neighbors who go all out, have a great Halloween.
Before heading out, grab a flashlight, stay with your group and check for traffic before crossing. Drivers, take it slow and watch for children. Keep the pumpkin lights flameless and the path out of your home clear.
From your San Bernardino County firefighters, have fun, be safe and look out for each other. Thanks for being part of the community we serve.
What's your favorite Halloween costume you've seen or worn?

PHOTO OF THE DAY | PRIDE IN SERVICE
The name on the door is familiar. The work that keeps the rig ready is easier to miss.
Daily apparatus inspections, equipment maintenance and training are part of a firefighter's job, alongside fire suppression, rescue and emergency medical care. Equipment is checked after operations, too, so damage or problems can be identified.
That preparation may not make an incident video, but it belongs in the story of what your firefighters do. Pride in service includes taking care of the tools and practicing the skills the next call may require.
Local 935 is proud to share the work behind the response. What would you like a closer look at: equipment checks, training or the tools carried on a fire truck?

HALLOWEEN ROAD SAFETY | LOOK OUT FOR EACH OTHER
The most important part of the Halloween route is getting everyone home safely.
Drivers, ease off the speed and scan for children, including in places you might not expect them. Families, use sidewalks, cross at intersections or crosswalks, and check every direction, including for turning vehicles.
Carry a flashlight and add reflective details to costumes. Stay together, and plan a sober driver or ride home before any celebration involving alcohol.
Your San Bernardino County firefighters are sharing this reminder for everyone using the road, whether your evening involves a candy bag, a steering wheel or both.
Share it with your neighborhood or the person driving your group.

PHOTO OF THE DAY | A FRIENDLY CHALLENGE
A few push-ups can be a simple way to break the ice.
Getting to know your firefighters doesn't always require a formal presentation. A shared activity or a conversation beside the engine can help people get to know the personalities behind the uniform, whether they want to ask about the job or just say hello.
Local 935 represents the people behind the response, and we value those connections with the communities we serve.
Have you had a memorable interaction with your firefighters?

A CLOSER LOOK
Sometimes the part people remember is getting to sit in the rig.
This archive photo shows community visitors taking a closer look at County Fire ARV18. No flames or flashing lights here, just smiles and a chance to see something unfamiliar up close.
Getting to know your firefighters should include more than emergency footage. The conversations, questions and everyday connections matter too. Local 935 is proud to share that side of the people we represent.
What first sparked your interest in the fire service: seeing a rig, meeting a firefighter or visiting a station?

HALLOWEEN FIRE SAFETY | KEEP THE SCARES MAKE-BELIEVE
The costume is ready. The decorations are up. Before the fun starts, give your Halloween setup a quick safety check.
Choose battery-powered lights or glow sticks for pumpkins. Avoid long, trailing costume fabric. Keep decorations away from flames, heaters and other heat sources, and keep doorways and exits clear.
If a costume includes a mask, make sure the wearer can see clearly. A flashlight belongs in the trick-or-treat kit, too.
Your San Bernardino County firefighters want the memories to be about the costumes and candy, not an emergency. Share this reminder with the person putting the finishing touches on Halloween.

A WIDER VIEW
An engine on the ground, a helicopter above, and a very different backdrop from a neighborhood street.
This archive photo shows County Fire Engine 322 in open desert terrain. It is a chance to look beyond the familiar image of a fire engine parked outside a burning building and ask about the different sides of the job.
Fire, rescue and emergency medical service are connected parts of the work. The vehicles may catch our attention first, but the people, communication and preparation behind them deserve a closer look too.
Local 935 shares these views to help you get to know your San Bernardino County firefighters. What would you like to learn about how ground crews and aviation teams work together?

APPARATUS SPOTLIGHT | WATER TENDER 42 | YUCCA VALLEY
Photo credit: @ietoocfirephotos
What happens when firefighters need water and there is no hydrant nearby? A water tender can bring additional water to the scene.
Water Tender 42 in Yucca Valley is this week's apparatus spotlight, and a good reason to look beyond the hose line at the water supply behind it.
Getting water to the fire is a job of its own. The public may notice the flames and the firefighters applying water first, but supplying that water is another essential part of the response.
These photos put that work in the spotlight. For Local 935, telling the fire service story also means recognizing the people handling the jobs that are less visible in an incident video.
What have you wondered about how firefighters get water when there is no nearby hydrant?
Photos: @ietoocfirephotos. Thank you for showcasing County Fire apparatus.
