Never Forgotten

With all that is going on in our country, our community, we must never forget to take a moment and remember our fallen brother, Oscar Armstrong III. Brother Armstrong made the ultimate sacrifice 17 years ago while battling a house fire in Bond Hill. May we all learn from this incident and forever keep him and his family in our thoughts. Stay safe.

It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us -- that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion -- that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain -- that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom -- and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.
Abraham Lincoln
November 19, 1863

It's Spring Service time in Cincinnati. See below for details.

ANNUAL SPRING SERVICE ALERT! Throughout the month of April, every one of the 12,000+ fire hydrants in the City of Cincinnati will be checked and serviced.

After servicing, firefighters try to flush the water until it's clear, but occasionally water may temporarily look discolored. If this happens, simply run water from the tap for a few minutes until it becomes clear. If it remains discolored for more than a few hours, please contact Greater Cincinnati Water Works at 513-591-7700.

Fire companies will perform this maintenance 7 days a week.
