Today marks National First Responders Day, a day to not only celebrate the outstanding first responders of DCEMS but also all our partners throughout the county and beyond. Today had good examples of that with multiple runs throughout the county, crews participating in our quarterly sim lab education, and a working house fire that involved crews from three different counties.
We thank all first responders for their dedication, sacrifice and service to the community.

The 2025 high school football regular season is drawing to a close. Many of our crews were on standby during the games and to cheer on the teams. We congratulate all the fall athletes on completing a great season.
Pictured here is DCEMS Medic 3 along side the teams at Orange Township Fire Department, Delaware County, Ohio at Olentangy Schools High School.
We hope everyone has a great evening!
