Chris Blackburn, Fire Chief, gave and update and progress report on what is happening in the Fire Dept. The December Volunteer Fire Department’s monthly Fish and Chicken Fry will not be held this year during the month of December. As the date is so close to Christmas and scarcely attended, the Fire Dept. decided to forego the December Fry this year and give the busy firemen some time off for Christmas.

The Fire Department has five fire fighters currently enrolled in training to be certified as First Responders. The course consists of 10 weekly classes with an exhaustive test of 100 questions at the completion. A passing score of 80 must be made to qualify for certification.
