Some pictures from yesterday’s control burn on the phillips 66 property on the south east side of highway 80 in Rodeo. Lots of very valuable training as well as fire fuels mitigation were achieved. Thank you @contracostacountyfire @crockettcarquinezfirefighters for the collaboration. Thank you to our community for your continued support and understanding the value of these burns. We strive to continually better our service to you. #fire #firefighting #firedept
Engine75 assisted @crockettcarquinezfirefighters with a injured mountain biker approximately 1/2 mile down a single track trail in the Crockett Hills Regional Park. A simple rope system was set up to get the downed mountain biker approximately 20 feet up a steep hill and back to the trail. Crews used a stokes basket with a wheel to walk the patient out to a waiting ambulance.
***gas leak*** quint 76 on scene of a gas leak in Hercules, avoid the onyx court area. PG&E is en-route to isolate the broken line. Remember to always call before you dig call 811. #fire #firefighter #firedept #pge
Earlier today your Rodeo Hercules firefighters responded to a report of 2 separate fires burning in the grass along eastbound highway 4. Our firefighters made a quick knockdown on the first fire while engine 13 took the second. Thank you @contracostacountyfire engine 13 for the help. #rodeoherculesfirefighters #fire #firefighter #fireman #firefighters #firedept
ABOVE AND BEYOND THE CALL: We want to give a special shoutout to 76A shift in Hercules. 76A shift responded to a call outside Dominos pizza to an elderly gentleman whom had fallen out of his mobility scooter and down an embankment. The crew helped the gentleman and AMR transported him. But furthermore they answered the call for help above and beyond the call to service. They without hesitation returned to their station to return to the scene with a pickup in order to bring the patients mobility scooter safely home for him. Great job guys, I’m proud to work along side some of the greatest. Keep up the great work!! #fire #firefighter #firedept #firedepartment #fireservice #hercules #rodeoherculesfirefighters
Early this morning your Rodeo-Hercules firefighters assisted Pinole Fire Department along with @contracostacountyfire , @crockettcarquinezfirefighters, @richmondfirefighterslocal188 and el cerrito fire for a structure fire in the city of pinole. Arriving crews were faced with heavy fire conditions in the garage, top floor of the living space and attic. The gas meter was damaged and was well involved as well but firefighters were able to safely isolate the gas valve to control the gas fire. Thanks to an aggressive fire attack the fire was controlled and limited to only the one structure, adjacent structures were saved. Thank you to all the agencies who responded, being such a small department we can’t do it alone.
Another mutual aid chimney fire in Crockett. Engine 75 went to the roof for a small fire in the chimney of a 3 story home. Crews extinguished the fire rapidly. @crockettcarquinezfirefighters #rodeoherculesfire #rodeoherculesfirefighters #fire #firefighter #firedept #fireengine #engine75 #rodeoca #herculesca #chimneyfire
On this Christmas Eve afternoon your Rodeo Hercules Firefighters were dispatched to a residential structure fire in Crockett. Chief 7800 and E-78 (Crockett) arrived on scene to find smoke and flames from the structures chimney/roof and declared a working fire establishing Bridgeview IC. E-78 stretched a line and made an aggressive interior fire attack. Q-76 (Hercules) and E-75 (Rodeo) arrived on scene and stretched an additional line to the roof of the structure and knocked down fire on the exterior of the chimney. Q-76 cut open the roof to check for extension into the attic and allowed E-75 to knock down any fire extending into the structure and the walls of the chimney. There were no injuries reported from the incident. #rhfd #rodeoherculesfirefighters #crockettfirefighters #californiafirefighter #crockett

Congratulations Carlo for completing your 10 shift. Wondering what a 10 shift is? Glad you asked The purpose of our 10 shift is to provide a foundation of training to our new employees on how we as a district operate on a daily level to serve our amazing community. Daily, Carlo had to complete multiple manipulative evolutions, drills, classroom sessions and his daily written exam. To successfully pass his 10 shift, yesterday he was tested on manipulative skills as well as a 100 question exam. Now he is off to start his probation with his new crew where he will have to complete a task book of training sign offs and tests once more. Good luck Carlo and keep your chin up!
We have two entries into the Hercules scarecrow competition. Win or lose we enjoyed participating. So if you are driving by either of our stations check out our scarecrows and let us know what you think in the comments below. Hope you enjoy the creativity and ingenuity that was put into these. Great job everyone.
Just want to give a shout out to 75-B shift for the great work on the landscaping in front of the station. Keep up the great work. #rodeoca #fire #firestation #station #firefighter #stationpride
Today our hearts are saddened to hear a loss of a fellow firefighter, Jason Cortez of the San Francisco City Fire Department. Please keep his family as well as our brothers and sisters at the San Francisco Fire Department in your thoughts and prayers. Thank you for your support.
Your Rodeo-Hercules Firefighters ask that you please consider joining us in supporting Collene Couzens and Charles Davidson for the Rodeo-Hercules Fire Board this Election Day!!
Repost from @crockettcarquinezfirefighters using @RepostRegramApp - Crockett, CA, 10/6/2020, 5:09 @crockettcarquinezfirefighters @rodeo_hercules_firefighters fire crews were dispatched to John Swett High School for reports of a commercial structure fire. Arriving crews located fire behind the gym building. The fire extended to the rear portion of the adjacent barn building with moderate smoke conditions through the attic space requiring crews to pull down much of the ceili...ng to look for extension. Crews from Rodeo-Hercules E75 conducted a search inside of the shop building looking for extension. All buildings are standing and structurally sound and no injuries were reported. A total of five engine companies and three chief officers were on scene, along with EMS and PG&E. An initial investigation determined the cause of the fire to be from metal debris from an old fire escape being cut away by construction crews. #crockettfire #jshs #fire #johnswetthigh #crockett #animalhouse #rodeoherculesfire : @codyrapella and 7801
For his first tour of work we would like to introduce everyone to the newest member of our team, Carlo Granzella. Carlo will be going through our departments training program called a 10 shift. During this time he will be going over many different topics of hands on training before he begins with his normal crew.
Your Rodeo Hercules Firefighters have returned home safely from their initial attack assignment on the glass incident in Napa County. Our experience and resilience as firefighters was most definitely put to the test. A lot of great work was performed by our members and some great saves to life and property were made. Wishing we could stay longer to continue the good work but all the while we are happy to be home safe. Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers. #fire #firedept #firefighter #firefighters #napa #hercules #cityofhercules #townofrodeo #rodeoca #herculesca #wildfire #vegitationfire #fireengine
You’re Rodeo Hercules Firefighters are currently responding initial attack to Saint Helena for a vegetation Fire. Contra Costa County Fire has upstaged due to the elevated fire danger and has a unit covering engine 75’s first due in Rodeo. Thank you @contracostacountyfire for covering.
Thanks Hercules Police Department for coming over. Our time together meeting and building rapport and learning from each other will serve our communities well for future interactions. You guys are always so respectful and professional. We are happy and proud to work along side you all daily.
Early this evening both of our companies were dispatched to a report of a capsized boat with one victim in the water. A Phillips 66 staff member witnessed the capsize occur and threw a life ring to the victim. The US COAST GUARD was in the area and pulled the man aboard. The real hero of this story is the victims life vest which truly saved a life tonight in the rough bay waters. Please, always remember to wear a life vest, your life may depend on it. Thank you pinole fire, phillips66, US COAST GUARD for the help. #fire #firedept #hercules #cityofhercules #townofrodeo #rodeoca #herculesca #coastguard #bayarea #westcontracosta #contracostacounty #water #waterrescue #openwaterrescue
