About noon today we were dispatched to a grass fire in our area on the Stateline. We want to thank Capron Volunteer Fire Department Alva Fire Department and units from Elwood Fire in Hardtner Kansas for the help today. All units have now cleared this scene and are back at the station.
Also this evening our Command 17 and Brush 14 along with a task force from Woods County, were dispatched to Beaver County to assist them. Units have now been diverted from there to near Meade, Kansas to assist those departments.
Please say a little prayer for all area firefighters as we navigate these dry conditions!
