Free firefighter training from Gaston Fire!

There are few things in life more rewarding than helping your neighbors in times of need, and one of the best ways to do that is to become a volunteer firefighter.

If you act fast, you could be responding to calls with Gaston Fire by summer. The training starts March 6 and is free.

Gaston Fire is participating with several other local departments for the Western Washington County Training Association Spring Firefighting Academy. The training takes place mostly on weekends and will be held at stations in Gaston, Banks, Forest Grove and Cornelius.

Gaston Fire saves horse from creek

A Gaston Fire lieutenant spent more than a half hour in a Laurelwood-area creek to calm a stuck horse until enough help could arrive to pull her to safety.

Lt. Clay Davis, who grew up on a cattle ranch in Eastern Oregon, didn't hesitate to jump into the creek when the 911 call came in at 1:13 p.m. on Jan. 5, 2010.

'Mayday, mayday, mayday!'
