Great story on CBS about young people serving in emergency services. We are fortunate to have a thriving junior fire department with two of our young members dually serving Western Albemarle Rescue Squad as EMTs.

So proud of the young men and women who have chosen to volunteer. Kudos to their parents who instilled something in them that makes them want to serve our community.

A great effort this morning by CVFD Captain Mathews and firefighters from Ivy Fire Rescue rescuing animals from a structure fire. This video from Capt. Mathew's camera shows the smoke conditions that were encountered on the first floor, while crews were in the basement working to quickly extinguish the fire.

The CVFD is grateful for the assistance from STVFD, North Garden Volunteer Fire Company, Ivy Fire Rescue, Albemarle County Police Department, Albemarle County Fire Rescue, Charlottesville, UVA, Albemarle County Emergency Communications Center, Western Albemarle Rescue Squad, and Albemarle County Sheriff’s Office.
