Baker City Donates Fire Truck to Seneca Volunteer Fire Department.
Baker City is pleased to announce the donation of a 1992 KME fire truck to the Seneca Volunteer Fire Department.
This donation gives a valuable piece of emergency equipment an opportunity to continue serving the public and supporting firefighters in the Seneca community.
The City is proud to support our neighbors and strengthen the network of fire and emergency services throughout our region. Donations such as this demonstrate the importance of cooperation and partnership between communities working together to protect the people they serve.
We are grateful to the dedicated volunteers of the Seneca Volunteer Fire Department for their commitment to protecting their community, and we hope this truck serves them well for many years to come.
From Baker City to Seneca — continuing to serve our communities.
