A big congrats to two of our own Captains here at the dept. Both of them are two of the most dedicated firefighters around. Not only do they serve the citizens of Blue Grass but those of the city of Muscatine. Last night they both moved from the rank of Lieutenant to Captain.
Help us congratulate Captain Jason Verschoore and Captain Spencer Ripperger

Today on memorial day some of our members ventured over to Wilton to defend their 1st place waterfight title! Needless to say we had a great showing with the final match coming down to FF Brandon Rheingans and Capt Jason Verschoore with Capt Verschoore coming away with 1st place for the second year. All other members did great as well. Was a great showing! Proud to Serve! Serve to Be Proud!
