Blog Carnival

Welcome to the First Due Blog Carnival. The First Due Blog Carnival is a concept by many fire bloggers and is the first blog carnival for firefighting. All are invited to participate in the blog carnival whether you have a fire blog, fire/EMS blog, fire based EMS blog, EMT blog, paramedic blog, or other first responder type blog. There might event be some topics that cop bloggers decide to participate in.

We are always looking for hosts, submissions, and ideas for future editions of the blog carnival. Please contact me at firecritic@firecritic.com to line your blog up as a host!

Follow these links for more information on the First Due Blog Carnival

It should be noted that the idea for the First Due Blog Carnival came from the popularity of the Handover Blog Carnival.

    I've added my own version of this, hope you don't mind. Great idea and I've enjoyed reading the submissions. Thanks.

    Great idea! Can't wait to submit our Fire Safety blog, firescaping.org (mostly aimed at residents who live in the WUI, but we're all firefighters or fire educators, too).
