The Iowa Colony Fire Department has deployed personnel and a tanker to assist with response efforts for the Ross Fires just outside of Fort Worth.

When communities face emergencies of this magnitude, the fire service comes together—crossing city and county lines to provide additional personnel, equipment, and resources wherever they are needed most.

We are proud of the Iowa Colony firefighters who have answered the call to assist. Please join us in wishing them, and all of the first responders working the Ross Fires, a safe deployment and safe return home.

Thank you for your service and for representing our community so well.
