25 years ago, the nation changed forever. When the call came, Colorado Springs firefighters answered.
They responded in the days after Sept. 11.
They answered again by helping build a place to remember the fallen. And years later, when firefighters began dying from cancers connected to 9/11, they answered once more.
Different calls.
Different generations.
The same promise: We will remember.

Smokey the Bear (or who we assume is Smokey) walked into the bay at Station 16, grabbed our gear bad, peaced out real quick, and said “thanks I’ll take it from here.” 🐻🚒
In all seriousness, our friends at @CPW_SE remind us that Black Bears are a “stomach with a nose” trying to bulk up for winter.
-Keep food and trash secured
-Take down bird feeders
-Keep pet food inside,
-Keep grills clean
-Put out trash on pick-up day only
If you encounter a bear, make loud noises to scare them off to make any encounter with humans uncomfortable for them. Depending on human food sources is unsafe and puts bears and people at risk. Learn more: cpw.state.co.us/living-bears
