year. Ray Potvin received the “Top Responder” award with 448 calls for the year. Annual years of service awards were given to
members as they reach their 5-year anniversaries. The following members were
recognized; Robert Perdue - 25yrs, Brian Garber - 10yrs, Jacob Quesinberry - 5yrs,
Danny Marshal - 5yrs, Shawn Sloane- 5yrs and Will Klick- 5yrs . Each member was recognized with a

This year’s banquet not only recognizes the members of the
fire department but the families, friends, and relatives who make it possible
for the department members to do what they do. A special thanks to Craig
Sellers for putting together our banquet each year and Ray Potvin for our
annual slide show.
