Today marks the last B Platoon day for the @GardenGroveFire. Needless to say, I’m going to miss working with one of the finest crews I have ever had. #brotherhood

#NationalNightOut is next Tue, 8/6/19, 5p-8p @GardenGrovePD @ 11301 Acacia Pkwy.
This is a great opportunity to meet the people that keep Garden Grove safe. As the City prepares to transition to the OCFA for FD services, this will be a great time to learn about their services.

It’s super hot out, & many are heading for the water. All of us @GardenGroveFire & @GardenGrovePD would like to remind you the following:
🏊♂️ Designate a responsible person free of distractions to watch the water
🏊♂️ Flotation devices aren’t replacements for watching your kids

4 calls in 3 hours.
Last call involved a child inadvertently locked inside a vehicle due to a passenger unfamiliar with the locking mechanism.
Current temp-74, real feel of real hot.
We were able to unlock the door, & the child was ok.
Make sure you check before you lock.

@GardenGroveFire & Mayor Steve Jones had the pleasure of hosting Joshy’s B-Day party & fulfilling his wish of riding on a 🚒 today. He missed his B-Day due to cancer treatment in Jan. Operation Be Kind contacted us & everyone jumped on making his wish come true. He ❤️s #Batman!
