Monthly Department Newsletter
Our department has identified that communication in the work place is intricate to our departments success.
As with many departments we needed a medium to deliver information to our membership. We identified that the medium must be accessible to any member of the department either by way of a paper or electronic copy. In September 2006 the first edition of the Cumberland Fire Department Newsletter; The Federal, was circulated to our membership, officers and town officials. Currently our newsletter is posted at both of our fire stations, emailed and posted on this website.
The Federal has become a single resource for members to get information such as: department statistics, training, activity and work schedules, information on fire prevention and inspections, apparatus and equipment updates, membership articles and monthly excerpts from fire service publications such as Firefighter Close Calls.com. A site that informs fire service professional of incidents where firefighters and rescue workers were close to suffering from severe injury or death and the lessons learned from those experiences. We found that our membership stays more informed with department news since the development and circulation of The Federal.
In an attempt to better archive each edition of The Federal, below we have provided links to each edition circulated. We hope that the information will help you keep current with department news and keep you and your crew safe.
