Training today focuses on incident command for fires and other large incidents - we use the Blue Card system to ensure our tactics and strategies are focused and ensure the safe and rapid mitigation of the emergency.
We're pleased to announce Kevin Fox will serve as the next chief of the Minnetonka Fire Department! Congratulations, Chief Fox! More: bit.ly/3Ue43tU
The Sensory Friendly Open House is this Saturday! Enjoy a tour of the Fire Station 1 without the lights and sirens from 10 a.m. - 1 p.m., plus you'll have a chance to meet firefighters, ride on the inflatable slide and more!
We were busy in March! Most of our calls were medical in nature. Be sure to call 911 if you believe you need immediate medical care or see anything on fire that should not be. If it’s your home that’s on fire, get out first and then call 911!
Day 5 of Severe Weather Awareness Week focuses on extreme heat and wildfires. Remember to practice heat safety wherever you are and recognize the signs and symptoms of heat-related illnesses. Be safe this summer!
Day 4 of Severe Weather Awareness Week focuses on tornadoes. At 1:45 & 6:45 the Outdoor Warning Sirens will sound as a statewide test. Best practice when you hear an Outdoor Warning Siren, you should seek shelter & seek information. Today is a good opportunity to practice.
The shelter in place has been lifted with the exception of Crestwood Drive East and Mayview Terrace.
Registration for our always popular Safety Camp is now open! Kids can go behind the scenes with @mtkapd and @MtkaFD to learn more about fire, water, bike, animal and personal safety. It's going to be a blast! Register: bit.ly/43D78Yt
It is crucial to have multiple ways to receive severe weather warnings, including but not limited to NOAA weather radio, TV & Radio, WEA or Weather Apps, Outdoor Sirens (not reliable if indoors!), Internet sites, and through word of mouth. weather.gov/mpx/swawday1 #mnwx #wiwx
Unfortunately, we have canceled our Hands Only CPR Class for today, April 2. This drop-in class will continue at our next scheduled dates: May 7 and June 4. See you then at Station 1!
We are always working to improve and maintain our fitness! We have made it to the Final Four in the city employee step challenge! We are working hard to out step the Police Department to make it to the final round!!
It’s Poison Prevention Week, although we don’t respond to a lot of 911 calls for poisoning, please be cautious around poisonous substances. Poisons can be injected, ingested, inhaled or absorbed. Add the Poison Control number, 1-800-222-1222, to your phone poison.org/what-is-webpoi…
It's Sparky's birthday! His birthday wish is to skip the dog treats and join his Fire Safety Club! Complete the challenges at Sparky.org to join the club and earn a certificate. Or take the Fire Safety Pledge and be a fire safety hero! sparky.org/pledge 🚒🎂
As the weather gets warmer and the winds pick up please be careful with outdoor fires. Stay with your fire, completely extinguish when done and keep water nearby, remember to turn your outdoor water on. Minnetonka requires a permit for rec fires - minnetonkamn.gov/government/dep…
Please make sure your smoke and carbon monoxide alarms are working, press the test button to check them today!
We responded to 365 calls for service in February. Our busiest day of the week was Monday. Nearly one fourth of our calls were overlapping. See below for more details.
We have our quarterly medical refresher tonight. We are training on CPR and AED use, OB emergencies, pediatric overdose and firefighter CPR.
We celebrate our female firefighters during Women’s History Month. Currently, women represent 13% of Minnetonka firefighters - more than twice the national average!
On scene of a multi vehicle crash at Hwy 7 and Williston road. The intersection at Williston and Hwy 7 is shut down, expect delays and closures in the area, use an alternate route.
