The Chadron Volunteer Fire Department have responded to eight fires in the past six days.&nbsp;

"It’s been a very busy past six days for our crews," Chadron Volunteer Fire Department said. "We have responded to eight fires, not including EMS calls in between. Six out of the eight fire calls were firework related."

On Monday evening CVFD was called to a house fire a couple blocks north of Chadron State College.&nbsp;

The cause of the fire is still under investigation.&nbsp;

CVFD also battled a wildfire south of Highway 20, close to South Slim Buttes Road.&nbsp;

The wildfire was caused by lightening from a recent thunderstorm and burned close to two acres.&nbsp;

CVFD also were called to three dumpster fires, one debris fire, and two additional wild land fires.&nbsp;

"As we continue to dry out very quickly we ask for everyone to please be fire careful," Chadron Volunteer Fire Department said. "We have a chance of thunderstorms every night this week. Our neighboring towns have also been working multiple timber fires as well. Forest service, civil air, seat plane, city maintainer and senior active have all helped in assisting us. Flight detections will continue to fly through the week to help find smoke for us in the timber."
