We would like to extend our sympathy to the family of Rich Kaiser. Rich served many years on The McClelland Fire Department, several as the Chief.

When we made the jump to add EMS to our service in the late 90's, Rich was one of the first members to obtain his EMT license.

If you couldn't find Rich at the fire station or at work, he was often found foot racing his daughters down Main Street, with his wife as the line judge, or throwing square bales exactly where advised to feed their many horses.

RIP Rich.

On October 3rd 2024 there is a sold out concert taking place at Westfair. If you are local we recommend avoiding the area and finding alternative routes to your destination. This includes eastbound I80 to the highway 6 exit. Expect delays.
