This month’s Public Education Spotlight is Sparky the Fire Dog. As he celebrates his 75th birthday we want to highlight the many years of educating families.
Three cool things about Sparky
1. Born in 1951, Sparky is celebrating his 75th birthday which is 575 in dog years!
2. Although his appearance has changed over the years, he has always been a dalmatian donning firefighter gear. In 2025, an NFPA patch was added to his sleeve.
3. Sparky is at the heart of all our Fire Prevention Week materials and has a huge online following on his website (sparky.org; sparkyschoolhouse.org ) and the NFPA Kids YouTube Channel.

Spring Break fun is making a splash in Clermont, the Choice of Champions™.
Our Splash Park is open daily during Spring Break from 10 am to 4 pm, giving families a refreshing way to enjoy time together right here in our community. While today’s weather may bring a few afternoon showers, champions know the Florida sunshine will return soon. When it does, bring the kids out to cool off and enjoy the splash park completely FREE.
Families can also make a full day of it by enjoying the nearby playground and dipping their toes in the waterfront beach area at Waterfront Park.
📍 Location: Waterfront Park Splash Park
100 3rd Street, Clermont, FL
A couple of quick reminders to help everyone have a great visit
• No food is allowed inside the Splash Park area
• As much as we love our furry friends, pets are not permitted inside the splash park
We look forward to seeing families and young champions enjoying Spring Break fun at the waterfront.

Sanitation collection continues across Clermont following the recent hard freeze.
Crews are working extended hours, with additional trucks on the road, to keep up with extra yard debris while maintaining regular service. Thank you for your patience, champions.
Champions, the expected and much needed rain later today should still leave plenty of time to enjoy the Clermont Farmers Market first!
Come on down to Montrose Street from 9 am to 2 pm and grab some fresh produce, baked goods, local honey and handmade goods while supporting our amazing local vendors.
On this K9 Veterans Day, we honor K9 Pike for his faithful service to the Clermont community.
K9 Pike served side by side with Corporal Jeremy Gustafson for seven years. Together, they responded to more than 4,000 calls and completed 200 deployments in service to Clermont. After retiring on May 10, 2022, Pike lived with Corporal Gustafson and family. He later became unexpectedly ill and passed away on September 11, 2022, at the age of 10.
In addition, we acknowledge our active duty K9s who continue serving our champions each day. Juno is trained in bomb detection, Mack is a full service crime suppression unit member, and Buckley is a certified therapy dog.
Today, we remember K9 Pike and thank all of our K9 partners for their service, loyalty, and commitment to our community. Clermont truly is the Choice of Champions™.
