    Another CM Dies after WDW Incident

    Actually they were returning from Arnold Palmer in downtown Orlando. Why were they "out of" amulances? Maybe because they haven't added any additional staff or ambulances since 1982. Several times a day there are no transport units available because they are tied up on other (often...

    Mickey Mouse fire dept T shirts

    Yes...the Reedy Creek Fire Department's web site is up and running and you can buy shirts and hats and other items on line. We also have them at either station 1 or 4 (I'll check tomorrow). On-line is probably the best way to buy with the call volume so high and it doesn't seem to be slowing...

    Looks like you are the photographer most of the time! Nice looking shirt! Even CMs think the fire department is part of Disney. As my dad once said, everything is seamless. It seems like one big organization from the moment you arrive. Have to get back to work......... gotta go!

    Cast Member Killed

    Bright side? There is nothing nice about this. Death, especially for a young healthy person, is tragic now matter where it occurs. Most trauma is preventable and trauma is the number one killer for those 14-20 years old.

    Cast Member Killed

    It WAS Pluto. Not a rumor. Not that it matters. This is a terrible accident and our prayers go out to the family and friends of this young cast member. She probably didn't even know what hit her since it happened quickly. This is number three big accident in less than a week. Two...

    Hopefully, we will be out of our Orange Alert mode by the time you visit, but the news today leads me to believe we will remain at the High alert for a while. If we drop to yellow, be sure to stop by. We are just up the road from Pop Century. Funny how the century is from 1950s to 1990s...
