Every day, our firefighters respond to medical emergencies across the community. The provide lifesaving care and professional and compassion when people need it most. Whether responding to cardiac arrests, traumatic injuries, overdoses, vehicle crashes, or everyday medical calls, EMS is at the center of what we do. This year’s EMS Week theme, “Improving Outcomes, Together,” reflects the teamwork between firefighters, first responders, dispatchers, medical professionals and the community that helps save lives every day.

Valmont is currently closed between 30th & Foothills. We received a report of black smoke coming from a business in the 3000 block of Valmont. Food in a commercial grade oven appears to be the cause. Please avoid the area for now while firefighters are on scene

After 32 years with the City of Boulder — including 24 years with Boulder Fire-Rescue — we celebrated the retirement of someone who has been part of the heart of our organization - Shawn. For so many of us, she was one of the very first people we met walking through the doors at Boulder Fire-Rescue. She knew everyone, cared deeply for people, and made every member of this department feel welcomed, supported, and valued. Through countless calls, celebrations, and challenges, she was a constant presence and an important part of so many careers and lives. Her impact on this department goes far beyond a job title. She helped build the family culture that makes Boulder Fire-Rescue special, and her ability to love big will be felt for years to come. While we will miss seeing her every day, we wish her all the happiness and adventure that retirement brings.

Today's sentencing related to the Boulder Attack marks an important step forward for our community. We are grateful for the diligence and coordination shown by investigators, prosecutors, and all those who worked tirelessly to get to this point. Accountability matters and so does justice for the victims and our community. 

I want to recognize the men and women who responded that day—especially our firefighters—who went in without hesitation, facing an unknown, evolving, and dangerous situation. They encountered victims with severe injuries including significant burns, and immediately shifted into lifesaving mode. Within 6 minutes, the first fire paramedic was on scene treating patients with advanced lifesaving care and incident command was coordinating with ground and air resources for transportation. I want to acknowledge the critical role of medical care in this response. From the initial treatment on scene to the care provided at our regional hospitals, the dedicated continuum of care made a meaningful difference for those impacted. The actions of our first responders on this day reflect the very best of public service.

Our thoughts remain with the victims, and everyone affected by this horrific event. As I like to remind my firefighters everyday as they process through difficult calls and trauma, we are strongest together - let us lean on each other to work through the physical and emotional toll of this incident.  - Chief Michael Calderazzo, Boulder Fire-Rescue

🚒 Training happening this week 🚒 You may notice increased activity from Boulder Fire-Rescue around 5150 Valmont Rd on May 5, 8, and 9. This is a multi-company training focused on responding to commercial structure fires. Crews will be practicing coordinated operations, communication, and tactics to ensure we’re ready when real emergencies happen. There is no live fire being used during this training. Training like this is important because it allows firefighters to work together in realistic scenarios, sharpen their skills, and stay prepared to protect our community.

This week is National Public Safety Telecommunicators Week, and we want to take the time to recognize and thank our wildland fire dispatchers. Dispatchers play a pivotal role in wildland fire programs. From taking the first phone or radio report of a new fire to mobilizing crews, engines, smokejumpers, showers and other assets around the country in support of fire suppression, dispatchers always stay busy, and we are grateful for the important work they do! Don't forget to thank someone in dispatch this week for their invaluable role in wildland firefighting efforts. Thank you to all the dispatchers across our state and country for being "the calm voice in the dark of the night." #NPSTW #dpfc #dfpcfire #FireYear2026 #cofire #coloradofire #firefighter #wildfire #wildlandfire #wildlandfirefighter

Red Flag Warning for April 13! These Red Flag conditions mean high winds, low humidity, and dry fuels. This is the kind of weather that allows fire to start easily and spread rapidly. You know the drill: • Avoid any outdoor burning or open flames • Properly dispose of cigarettes — never toss them from a vehicle • Delay yard work that creates sparks (mowing, grinding, etc.) • Sign up for emergency notifications at boulderodm.gov And PLEASE don’t go on a hike and assume that Open Space is exempt from the Red Flag warning. It is not exempt, make smart (non ignition) choices on our shared Open Space so we can all enjoy it now and in the future.

The area is all clear and no smoke was found by firefighters who searched the area. The video shared by the reporting caller was a sun glare that the caller mistook as smoke. Firefighters have been called off scene. Please avoid the area until all first responders and vehicles are cleared out.
