This past weekend, your IMFD firefighters and firefighters from South Trail Fire Protection & Rescue Service District responded to a residential structure fire in McGregor Isles. Upon arrival into the area, the street and house were full of smoke. The fire started on the exterior of the home and spread into the eaves and the attic. Firefighters were able to put it out quickly.
A big thank you to a neighbor or who saw the flames and alerted people in and around the home. Everyone got out safely.

Awesome job!!
Thank you!
When Battalion Chief Marc Mascarelli was 13-years-old, his 4th of July celebration was safe, festive, and fun. However, the 5th of July was drastically different after playing with a dud firework and without parental supervision.
He now advocates to leave fireworks up to the professionals, but for kids who choose otherwise, parental supervision is a must.
“Why not let other people learn from my stupid mistakes?”

Brotherhood Ride!
You may or may not be familiar with the Brotherhood Ride, but either way, we encourage you to read this post!
One of our very own, Firefighter Jonathan West is going to be riding as a rider in the Brotherhood Ride this year. He will be riding with fellow first responders from across the state, providing emotional and financial support to the families of fallen first responders.
The ride is an 8-day ride starting in Fort Myers , FL and finishing in Jacksonville, FL. The ride starts on Saturday, Oct. 15 – Saturday, Oct. 22.
Riders will ride between 80-100 miles per day, covering more than 550 miles and honoring 85 Florida Fallen Heroes. The ride also stops at different agencies along the way to meet with family, co-workers, etc. of some of the fallen first responders.
Each rider is responsible for their own rider fee of $500.00. This covers the cost of some of the things they will need during the week-long ride and also a contribution to the families. They are encouraged to seek out donations from family, friends and their community. We are going to strive to raise $1,000. If you would like to donate to FF West and his ride across the state, please click the link below.

I was walking my dog at Rotary Park in Cape Coral today 1 July 2022 at approx. 3:25PM when one of your large pickup trucks with your ghost logos on it came in the parking lot. She tried to back in while my dog and I were trying to walk by. I did not know pedestrians DID NOT have the right of way for non-emergency fire vehicles let alone any vehicles so I had to stop before she even tried to back up, she seen me and still ignored me until she was on her second try and then she wanted me to walk behind the vehicle with barely any room and a serious safety issue with her not having any view of me if I would have walked behind the truck. Why was she even using taxpayer funded vehicle for anyway? To go to Cape Coral's Rotary Park for the day? Great way to waste taxpayer money. So don't even think of sweeping this under the rug. Because I would not walk behind her vehicle, I didn't get a plate number, but you guys have logbooks and other tracking methods in tracking your vehicles. Two words: Do Better.
