*PRESS RELEASE*

The Loris Fire Department was among 208 S.C. fire departments to receive the 2024 Fire Safe South Carolina Community Designation during the annual Fire-Rescue Conference held in Myrtle Beach on June 13, 2025.  According to the press release, “To earn Community Designation, fire departments complete courses to increase their department's Community Risk Reduction efforts, document opportunities of public education, and work with partners to address risks in their community.  These designated communities continually work to reduce home fire-related injuries in South Carolina, thereby decreasing the risks for residents and firefighters.  They promote consistent fire and life safety messaging and stress the importance of providing data collected in response to fires and other emergency calls for service.”

We are proud of the men and women of our Loris Fire Department and all they do for the City of Loris and surrounding communities!  Click HERE to view this press release in its entirety.
