On November 6th at approximately 12:15 pm, CKFR crews were called to the Seabeck marina for a boat fire.  Upon arrival, the boat was fully engulfed.  The adult male, owner of the boat, was transported to Harrison Bremerton with minor injuries. There had been nobody else on board and no other vessels were affected.

The Kitsap County Fire Marshal was called to investigate. Crews pulled over 700 feet of hose to reach the fire. ‬

At 8:15 am on August 30th, CKFR crews responded to a brush fire at the Anderson Landing Preserve. The fire was approximately 20′ x 20′ and was slow moving involving brush and standing timber on the edge of a ravine in steep terrain.
Thirteen firefighters with specialized Wildland Urban Interface training handled this event and kept this fire from spreading further into the ravine and from threatening nearby residences.
Three Engines, one Ladder Truck, two Tenders, one Utility, and Command extinguished and mopped up this fire with 4,000 gallons of water.

On Friday, June 8,^, 2018, at approximately 6:35 am, Central Kitsap Fire and Rescue received a call in reference to a structure fire in the Griffin Glen Apartments on Mariah Lane in Bremerton. The call was quickly upgraded to a second alarm.

Upon arrival at the multi-unit, two story, apartment building, crews determined the fire had been knocked down by the buildings sprinkler system.  Checks were conducted to ensure nobody remained inside and that there was no extension of the fire into the attic of the building.

The fire had started in a bedroom of the second floor unit. There was fire, smoke, and water damage throughout and two adults were displaced.  The unit underneath suffered considerable water damage and seven adults were displaced.

A Bremerton Fire Marshal on his way to work heard the call and arrived to assist crews.  He helped with the occupants needs and assisted the County Fire Marshal when she arrived on scene.

The cause appears to be electrical, but is still under investigation.

The Bremerton Fire Department and Navy Region Northwest Fire also responded.

Red Cross was called to assist the occupants of both units.

• Working smoke alarms save lives! Test alarms monthly, and replace batteries twice a year unless they have a ten year lithium battery. 

On the afternoon of April 30, 2018, Central Kitsap Fire and Rescue Station 45 “B” shift responded to a service call. A resident called 911 stating baby ducks had fallen into a storm drain next to her home in the 3800 block of NE Ambleside Lane in Bremerton.

Lieutenant Bill Green and Apparatus Operator Marcus Oliver identified the storm drain the ducklings were in with some help from Mother Duck who was standing by. The crew borrowed a fishing net from a neighbor and removed the drain grate. Lt. Green and A/O Oliver then removed 14 ducklings and released them back into the pond reuniting them with their mother!
