DCEMS had the privilege of participating in the Delaware County sheriffs office @delawarecosheriff Safety Town. Safety Town participants got to see our truck, equipment and meet our paramedics. We appreciate the invite and enjoyed meeting everyone!
Yesterday members of DCEMS and Berlin Township Fire Department trained on the mountain bike trails at Alum Creek State Park. These trails maintained by the Central Ohio Mountain Biking Organization (COMBO) @combomtb are a popular and exciting destination but can be difficult to access. Thanks to the continuous partnership and planning between DCEMS, BTFD, Ohio State Parks @ohstateparks and COMBO, we are able to quickly navigate and go to any part of the trail should someone be injured or ill. This is something we do regularly to be prepared and were proud of the frequent communication between agencies on this unique area in our county.
We hope everyone has a great weekend!
