Westport Volunteer Fire Department

Westport Volunteer Fire Department would like to give a huge thanks to the Mendocino Coast Healthcare Foundation for a $5000 grant to purchase PPE for responding to potential #covid19 patients. Shown in the picture are our three phases of PPE. #westportvfd #westportca #winesongmendocino https://youtu.be/BBUABI3wReA

Please drive carefully on our roads. Stop and enjoy the view, pull off and let others pass, don’t speed.......this one was a non-injury roll over thankfully.

This afternoon #westportvfd and #calfiremeu E1192 responded to an escaped control burn. Please make sure you have a #burnpermit, it is a #burnday, and attend to your burn pile until it’s completely out. Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!

WVFD and CalFire 1192 mopping up a half acre fire this afternoon. Burn pile that got away from the owner. Though burning is authorized now, conditions are still marginal. Even mowed fields can burn under marginal conditions. Be safe and Happy Thanksgiving.

Today, Westport Volunteer Fire Department Chief Daniel Maxey accepted a $2500 donation from Mendocino County District Attorneys Office. The money for the donation came from restitution funds from illegal marijuana grows in Mendocino County

Rope rescue training with CalFire 1192 out of Ft. Bragg this morning.
