On August 21, 2017 Clarksville and the surrounding areas will be at the point of totality for the solar eclipse. As our area expects to double its population with visitors from around the nation, we are preparing for any event that could occur while maintaining usual business and responses to home fires.
On September 14, 2017 we will hold our annual Heroes Luncheon. This fundraiser supports our responses and recognizes those throughout the community who engage in humanitarian leadership. This year, we will honor Pastor Jimmy Terry as our Humanitarian of Year and celebrate his astounding accomplishments and Humanitarian efforts in our community.
On September 23, 2017 we will kick off Sound the Alarm. Save a Life. Sound the Alarm is part of the Home Fire Campaign as a nationwide initiative to reduce the amount of fire related deaths across the nation. So far, there have been over 237 documented lives saved. Our volunteers and partners go into communities to educate people on fire safety, as well as check and install alarms for free. So far, the Home Fire Campaign has saved two lives right here in Clarksville!
It is with the greatest appreciation that I would like to thank all of our volunteers and staff members who have joined these initiatives to make our communities a safer place.
