Today is National First Responders Day, a time to recognize the people who answer the call when our communities need help the most.
To our First Response Air and Ground teams, who provide lifesaving care and transportation 24 hours a day. To the volunteer responders who leave their jobs, dinners and families behind to help a neighbor. To the dispatchers and communications professionals who calmly gather information, provide guidance and coordinate help when every second counts. To the members of the Minot Fire Department, the Minot Police Department, the Ward County Sheriff’s Department and all the other surrounding agencies who run toward emergencies when others run away, thank you.
Whether responding to a medical emergency, a crash, a fire or a call for help, your work makes a difference every single day.
Thank you for your service, your professionalism and your commitment to keeping our communities safe. We are proud to work alongside you.
