Fire Prevention Week is only a few weeks away! We want to thank Alisha Alef - State Farm Agent for donating education materials to distribute during Fire Prevention Week. This year’s theme is "Serve Up Fire Safety in the Kitchen." Unattended cooking is the leading cause of home fires nationwide, and that statistic holds true here in Shelby Township as well. Be safe and always cook with care. ... See MoreSee Less

Every day, children are born with muscular dystrophy and adults are diagnosed with ALS and other life-threatening diseases that take away their most basic freedoms - like walking, talking, eating, hugging, and ultimately life itself.
Due to Covid, we are not able to do our normal “Fill the Boot” event. Instead we will be collecting donations virtually this year.
Every penny counts and 100% of the donations will go directly to the MDA. The money we raise will help children and adults in our community, and will also help support innovative research to change the future for people with neuromuscular disease.
Please make a donation. Thank you!

On this night 19 years ago 246 people went to sleep in preparation for their morning flights. 2,606 people went to sleep in preparation for work in the morning. 343 firefighters went to sleep in preparation for their morning shift. 60 police officers went to sleep in preparation for morning patrol. 8 paramedics went to sleep in preparation for the morning shift of saving lives. None of them saw past 10:00am Sept 11, 2001. In one single moment life may never be the same. Tonight as you go to sleep in preparation for your life tomorrow, kiss the ones you love, snuggle a little tighter, and never take one second of your life for granted.

Tom taught many of the EMTs and Paramedics on our department.
He will be missed by us all.It is with a heavy heart we have to report the sad news of RFD Retiree Tom Mill's passing yesterday. Tom retired as our Chief of Training in 2000. He stayed active at MCC in the EMT/Medic program for many years. Tom has left a lasting legacy of training so many of the current EMT/Paramedics and Firefighters throughout Macomb County. He will be missed but not forgotten. We will keep you updated when we get any information about a future memorial.
This is the information his family posted to Facebook:
Hey all. Yes, it is true. Yesterday at 5:36 pm surrounded by friends and family, my father, Thomas R. Mill took his last breath. He had been diagnosed as COVID positive and was making huge strides, but a hypercoagulable state caused a blood clot to travel to his brain. We are completely devastated. Please respect our privacy, as we are struggling to survive each minute without him. Per his wishes, he will be cremated and his ashes laid around a beautiful tree in our yard, so he can watch over us. There will be no service, but rest assured that as things settle, we will celebrate his life the way he wanted, with a huge memorial party. Thank you all for your well wishes. In time, we may figure out how to carry on without him, but right now, we are just trying to figure out how to breathe again. ... See MoreSee Less

Due to COVID-19, the 15th annual Shelby Township Firefighter’s Charity Golf Outing will be canceled for September 25, 2020.
While golf is an activity in which social distancing precautions can be applied, the success of the outing relies heavily on donations from local businesses and community members. With the inability to hold the banquet after the event, the quickly changing scenarios, and the substantial economic impact as a result of COVID-19, we felt it would be best to not to request additional donations from businesses that may already be experiencing a hardship. We anticipate holding the next golf outing in the fall of 2021.
If you would like to be involved with next years outing, please contact Kevin Newhouse at knewhouse@shelbytwp.org. Mark your calendars for Sept 24, 2021 and look forward to seeing you back on the fairway. ... See MoreSee Less
