On March 8, 2008, members of L-4109 along with other personnel from the SHFD and Thornton Fire Department shaved their heads to help support children's cancer research. This year we had a special treat. Lt. Rick Triemstra shaved his head after setting a personal goal of $5000. Many thanks to all that contributed to this worthwhile cause. If you would like more information and/or wish to donate money, please visit our team page on the St. Baldrick's Day web site.

Carbon monoxide poisoning is a subject that people know very little about. Not only can it kill you, it can cause permanent Neurological Damage in the longer term. It is a colorless, odorless, tastless gas that can make you feel ill and inhibit your life potential. We have made more information available to you on our fire/safety page.
