Photos and Story on page 8 The Fire Wire Page 2 Spring cleaning doesn t have to be such a chore, especially when you get motivated by knowing that the following spring cleaning activities will help to keep your kids safe. Medicine Cabinet Your medicine cabinet is not meant to be a storage area for all of the medicines that your child has ever been prescribed. For whatever reason, parents do seem to end up having left-over or half used prescriptions in their medicine cabinet though. Spring cleaning is a good time to remove outdated prescriptions. Smoke & CO Detectors If you didn t replace the batteries in your smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors at the start or end of daylight saving time, now is a good time to do it. It is also a good time to test your smoke alarms and CO detectors, although you should be doing that each and every month. You can also this time as a reminder to review and rehearse your family s fire escape plan. Broken Toys Many parents use spring cleaning as an excuse to go through and get rid of toys that their kids no longer play with, but you can also use it as a time that you check the toys that they do still play with and get rid of those that are broken and can t be repaired. When considering toy safety, you should be especially watchful for: splinters or sharp edges on wooden toys weak or loose parts that could fall off and become a choking hazard broken pieces leaking batteries loose screws and bolts, especially on things like playground equipment and ride on toys (bicycles, scooters, skateboards, etc.) loose or exposed wires in electrical toys Childproofing Time for Spring Cleaning Even if your home is well childproofed, with latches on cabinets, gates on stairs, and covers on door knobs, you do have to regularly inspect them to make sure they are still working properly. Cabinet and drawer latches and locks are especially prone to wear and tear, which may allow your child to get in them and to any unsafe items you have stored in them.
3 Local Marine Honored With New Home Emergency Services honored a United States Marine on January 30th during ceremonies held at Harmony on the Lakes Subdivision in Holly Springs. The Marine, Staff Sgt. David Payton, enlisted in the U.S. Marine Corps in July 2001 as an Infantryman immediately after graduating from McEachern High School in Powder Springs, Georgia. Payton was assigned to 3rd Battalion 8th Marines at Camp Lejeune, North Carolina. During his military service, Payton deployed to Japan, Haiti, Republic of Georgia and Iraq. While in Iraq on Iraqi Election Day in 2005, his compound was hit by a rocket-propelled grenade (RPG). The RPG struck a chemical tank near Payton and it exploded, immersing him with a chemical that was believed to be ammonia. The ammonia severely burned his eyes, his lungs, airways and body. Payton was medically evacuated to Brooke Army Medical Center (BAMC) in San Antonio, Texas, along with three other Marines. While at BAMC, he was in a coma for two weeks as well as on life support, leaving his doctors and his family with little hope that he would survive this uncommon injury. Page 3 Staff Sgt. David Payton In December, 2014, the Paytons were surprised with the news that they were receiving a new home at Harmony at the Lakes thanks to the PulteGroup Built to Honor program and Operation Finally Home. Today, David, his wife, Heather and his seven children arrived at 706 Lorimore Pass in the Harmony on the Lakes Subdivision to assist with the groundbreaking ceremony for his new home. Emergency Services sent Ladder 24 to the event to hoist an American Flag at the end of the ladder. The Emergency Service Honor Guard was also present for the presentation of the colors for the event. Emergency Services was honored to be a part of this awesome event! PHOTO AT LEFT - Cherokee County Fire and Emergency Services Honor Guard present colors.

The competition took place on Saturday, February 7th, at the Gatlinburg Convention Center with over 3,400 Explorers and Venturers from 17 states attending the event this year. This was the 14th year that the local post has attended the event. Post 469 brought 21 youth and 14 advisors to this event. Also in attendance from our department were Cherokee County Fire Chief, Tim Prather, Assistant Fire Chief, Eddie Robinson, and Operations Chief, Greg Erdely. Many friends and family members of Post 469 attended the event as well. Explorers Post #469 came home with some well-deserved awards including 1st and 2nd Place in the Z-Drag competition, 1st and 4th Place in the Table Top Display competition, and 5th Place in the Cherokee Drill Competition. The Z-Drag competition consisted of a team of 4 explorers who had to rescue a victim using technical rescue techniques in a timely yet precise manner. The Table Top Display competition involved the explorers using their knowledge and marketing techniques to share their passion about the fire service. One of the local teams display was about the explorer post and the many things it has to offer while the other display was about fire prevention, safety, and suppression systems. Both displays were presented by the explorers to the judges and many of the attendees at the event. The Cherokee Drill, which was hosted by the Cherokee County Fire Explorer Post 469, is a timed event involving a team of 4 explorers in a relay type drill who had to perform tasks such as quick dress, forcible entry, hose deployment, hose crawl, victim removal, and egress through a restrictive passage. The completion times between 1st and 5th place in this event were only a few seconds apart. (story continues on page 5)
5 First Place Trophies for Cherokee County Fire Explorers (continued) Page 5 In addition to the competition, the local Explorer Post Honor Guard presented the Nation s and the State of Georgia s colors at the awards ceremony on Saturday night. This was the 10th time the post has had this honor. The Honor Guard was accompanied by Cadet Firefighter, Dalton Hamby, who sang The National Anthem. The explorers began training for this year s Winterfest back in September They averaged 7-10 hours of training per week and were mentored by career and volunteer firefighters who serve the Explorer Post without financial compensation as Advisors and Associate Advisors. The explorer program is a career based leaning opportunity and is open to young men and women ages 14 (and completed the 8th grade) and not yet 21 years old with an interest in learning more about careers in the field of Fire & Emergency Services. The Cherokee County Fire & Emergency Services Explorer Post features a hands-on program that exposes participants to many career experiences, leadership opportunities, and community service activities. The primary goals of the program are to help young adults choose a career path within fire and emergency services and to challenge them to become responsible citizens of their communities and country.
