Madison Volunteer Fire and Rescue

Thanks to a donation from Nucor Nebraska, 33 firefighters were able to get new boots to go with their light weight wild land gear. This was much needed and greatly appreciated!!

A great turn out to our 146th annual Bingo night.

Bingo is going on and there’s still food available. Thank you Nub's Grub for the delicious food!

****IMPORTANT UPDATE****

The existing suspension has been extended to 11:59 pm on April 10th. We have received questions about burn barrels and patio permits, which are not included in this suspension, and the guidance for now is to avoid all open burning as these conditions are extremely dangerous.

It’s that time again—please be advised that a statewide tornado siren test is scheduled for Wednesday, March 25th at 10:00 AM.

**** Effective immediately - March 13, 2026****

State of Nebraska has issued an Executive Order banning all Open Burn Permits for the next 14 days.

During this time, no burn permits can be issued for any reason, and any permits that were previously issued but not yet used are now void. Open burning is not allowed during this period.

State officials will review conditions before the end of the 14 days to determine whether the ban needs to be extended. We will share updates as soon as more information becomes available.

We appreciate everyone’s cooperation and understanding as we work together to keep our community safe during these dangerous fire conditions.
