Yesterday, 6 of your Yakima Firefighters took on the 2025 Stairclimb in Seattle!
This event has firefighters from around the world climbing to find a cure for Cancer. Firefighters climb 69 flights of stairs, 1,356 steps, and 788 vertical feet all while in full bunker gear and on air!
Your Yakima Firefighters raised over $3000 to help the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society, with the event raising over $2 million to help fund cancer research.
Great work fellas!

Can any of you PLEASE rescue a cat that has been trapped in a tree at 720 N 3rd Ave in Yakima? The poor kitty has been treed by a dog since last Thursday. The owners of the property won’t allow anyone to enter to rescue the cat😥. The cat’s owner lives at 714 N 3rd Ave, but can’t get anyone to help. The cat will die if it’s not rescued SOON. 😥😥😥
One of our probationary firefighters was able to find a cat during their primary search of a home! Then he proceeded to give it oxygen due to the smoke environment the cat was found in. #iaff469

It was a beautiful memorial honoring a life well lived…❤️
The testimony of friends and tributes to a life well lived, cut too short. I hope the stories continued through the rain at the fire.
It is with extremely heavy hearts that we announce the passing of our friend, brother, and Fire Mechanic Paul Weeks.
Your time with us ended too soon, but we are all grateful to have had the opportunity to call you brother, and friend.
Your memory will live on forever.
Rest easy brother, we’ll take it from here.
