Tales From Bark Mountain
The Last Shift
On a quiet, snow covered New Year’s Eve in Bark Mountain, the fire hall feels different. Tonight is Firefighter Ken’s last shift—his final night answering the call alongside the crew he helped shape. Just as the cake is set and the goodbyes begin, the alarm rings one more time.
Side by side with Chief Steve, Goose the Fire Dog, and the rest of the team, Ken responds with the calm courage he’s shown for years. As the crew works together on one final call, something powerful becomes clear: leadership doesn’t end when a mentor steps away.
Through teamwork, trust, and heart, Ken passes more than a helmet—he passes belief, confidence, and the courage to lead. This touching episode reminds young listeners that change is part of every journey, and that the lessons we learn from those who guide us continue long after they’ve moved on.
