Timber Lakes Volunteer Fire Department

We have been given Muck out kits from Montgomery County Office of Homeland Security and Emergency Management for anyone who got weather damage during yesterday's events. This is a bucket full of cleaning supplies. We are limited on buckets, so it is one per household. You can come by the fire station located at 3434 Royal Oaks Dr. and pick it up. Proof of residence will be required.

For our residents that suffered any damage from yesterday’s weather. Please see the following post from the Montgomery County Office of Homeland Security and Emergency Management and submit a damage report via the iStat application.

Crews have been busy with downed trees and stranded motorists. Please turn around, don’t drown when you come up to high water. This flash flood water rose quickly.

Make sure you stay weather aware by following Montgomery County Office of Homeland Security and Emergency Management for updates and our page.

Today, personnel from the Timber Lakes Fire Department conducted boat familiarization training to ensure our crews are ready to respond during this year’s hurricane and rainy season. Along with our department, personnel from the Needham Fire & Rescue/ Montgomery County ESD #4 were also in attendance for a joint training opportunity.

Members spent time reviewing operations and practicing with both our inflatable rescue boat and our flat-bottom flood evacuation boat, reinforcing the skills needed to safely conduct water rescue and evacuation operations when severe weather impacts our community.

Regular training helps ensure that our personnel remain prepared to respond quickly and effectively when residents need us most.

As we move into hurricane season, Timber Lakes Fire Department remains committed to maintaining readiness and providing the highest level of service to our community.

For the past several days, B-141 assigned to TIFMAS Strike Team 169 has been pre-positioned in Fort Davis, Texas, assisting with wildfire response efforts across West Texas.

While assigned, personnel have participated in training and have responded to fires in support of local agencies and communities.

This morning, Timber Lakes Fire Department’s Type 6 Wildland Engine was deployed as part of TIFMAS to support wildfire response operations across the State of Texas.

The strike team is currently pre-positioned in Fort Stockton, Texas, ready to respond wherever needed as wildfire conditions continue to impact parts of the state.

Representing Timber Lakes Fire Department on this deployment is one of our firefighters on our wildland team, and is joined by a Lieutenant from The Woodlands Fire Department.

We are proud to work alongside our regional partners through TIFMAS and appreciate the dedication and professionalism of all personnel answering the call to serve.

This morning, E-141 responded to one of our smallest rescue calls yet… 🐥🚒

A baby duck had taken an unexpected detour into a storm drain and needed a little help getting back to safety. Thankfully, our crew was able to safely rescue the tiny feathered friend and reunite it with its very concerned duck family nearby.

No matter the size of the emergency, the Timber Lakes Fire Department is always ready to help our community — even the ones with feathers! 💛

Great job by the crew of E-141 on another successful “special operations” rescue. 👏
