BIG Announcement: Out with the old and in with the new! 🚒

The Whitewater Fire & EMS has retired its 35‑year‑old ladder truck and introduced a safer, modern replacement.

💧The old truck was well beyond recommended service life and nearly failed its last inspection. This upgrade was necessary to remain NFPA [National Fire Protection Association] compliant. The new truck is officially in service, ensuring our crews can continue protecting the community safely and effectively.
