Today, despite the rainstorm that passed through, we successfully executed auto extrication training. Our chief and deputy chief worked closely with team members, sharing their extensive expertise and knowledge. The significance of training cannot be emphasized enough. We express our sincere gratitude to Robbie's Wrecker for providing the vehicles and venue for the training exercise, and we offer them our genuine appreciation and thanks

Today at approximately 3:45 pm, we were dispatched for a tree across the road with lines involved. R-581 responded and assisted at the scene, closing the road down. AEP was on scene and had already contacted Asplundh. We maintained the road closure until they arrived. We would like to extend our gratitude to AEP, Lincoln 911 dispatchers, Asplundh, and our members.

Well, ladies and gentlemen! Here is our big announcement! We welcome our new engine into our house. It has been a long road working to get this truck, and we still have a long road ahead of us to get it in service. The truck will need our decals, radios, equipment, etc. put on. So, within hopefully a month, we'll have our new Engine 552 in service and serving our community. We would like to express our appreciation to our Board of Directors, our Fire Chief, and our members, and especially our community, without your support we wouldn't be able to make this happen.
Also we would like you give a big shout out to Thomas Mays on sending a driver to go get our truck this makes the second one he has went and got for us and he’s done a awesome job thank you !!!
Have a a wonderful day everyone 🚒🚨🚒🚨🚒🚨🚒!!
