Thanks for your help to provide us with new lifesaving equipment!

The LC Sportsman’s Club recently presented $3000 of support the Lake City Fire Department to help purchase new dry suits for water rescues. At the recent LCSC meeting, the firefighters provided a demonstration of putting on the suits and explained their purpose and use in the Lake City area. Pictured here with one of the suits that needs replacing are LCSC Secretary Linda Marx and LCSC Treasurer Audry Plote (front) with LC Firefighters Chris Tourney, Jake Schumacher, Luke Hartzell, and Casey Hendersen.
