YOUR FIRE DEPARTMENT

Did you know that our fire truck and equipment is worn out? And that we are badly in need of a new one ? Some time within the next two weeks some one will call on you for a donation to help buy a new fire truck and equipment. When they do please give as much as you can. As you know the men who fight the fires give of their time without any compensation whatsoever. The least we can do is see that they have good equipment and a good truck. Who knows, you may be the next one to call them.
