    It's time to clean out those garages, attics and closets. The annual "Spring Fling Rummage Sale" needs your help. This year, the fire department is headed back to Station 1 at 5678 Old Railroad Bed Road for the rummage sale. The sale will be held on June 1 from 6a.m. – 2p.m.
    Donated items can be taken directly to the fire department on any Tuesday between the hours of 7-9 p.m.

    The sale of these items will go toward the equipment, maintenance, buildings, utilities, fire prevention, emergency medical services, education of our volunteers and other things.
    The volunteers risk their lives to help people in need of assistance anytime, anywhere. These funds are necessary to serve and protect our community.
