Our new engine is scheduled to arrive before Christmas, but with its first shift not until February, it’s taking a moment to enjoy the journey—after all, it has 20 years of service ahead! Meet the 2025 Pierce Enforcer: 750-gallon tank, 1,500 GPM pump, and sister engine to E81. Ordered in October 2022, it was funded through our Capital Repairs and Replacement Fund, part of the M&O levy. BC McBride and Lt. Chiatovich, along with Olympia Fire mechanics, traveled to Appleton, WI for one last inspection before delivery. First stop on the road trip? A photo op at Lambeau Field. We’re just hoping it remembers it has a shift to start soon!

Today our crews were out running pump operations training in the rain. Wet weather adds an extra layer of realism, helping us stay sharp for the conditions we actually face on calls.

From mastering water flow to practicing hose management on slick ground, every drill keeps us ready to serve our community—no matter what the weather brings.
