We are proud to announce that we received a $30,000 grant today to replace our aging extrication tools from NextEra. This is not a political move on our behalf. It is strictly a financial decision that will enable our firefighters to use the most up to date equipment and will enable them to work faster to rescue someone from a wrecked vehicle. The tools are electric which will enable the firemen to work faster without a hydrolic hose attached. These tools may very well save a life because every minute counts.
We would have to have 20 dinners to maybe have enough to purchase these tools.
Our levy money for this year was used to purchase ParaTek equipment to replace our aging struts.
