On this day... 24 years ago 246 people went to sleep in preparation for their morning flights. 2,606 people went to sleep in preparation for work in the morning. 343 firefighters went to sleep in preparation for their morning shift. 60 police officers went to sleep in preparation for morning patrol. 8 paramedics went to sleep in preparation for the morning shift.

A quick thank you to Fly Creek Cider Mill for once again providing an excellent water source for fire fighting. This is the second time in the past few years that we have had to pull a draft to provide water for fire fighting from the site. They have always been very accommodating and understanding so thank you for helping us help the community.
