Truck #64 pump motor blew on a fire scene. It caught fire, was put out right away. Took truck and pump off old truck to Cumberland Gap for repair.
I attended the tabletop exercise made available through FEMA that would deal with a flu epidemic in Claiborne County. This is emergency planned preparedness training.
We attended the EVOC and Melissa Free Training that was required by the state.
We have LZ training coming up Nov 13 sponsored by Life Star. It will be at the Justice Center.
At the monthly Chief's meeting, Mr. Coots from the water department spoke to us. We now have to make a quarterly report on how much water we use. He in turn has to show where all the water has gone.
We visited the Alpha School and the pre-school children see the fire truck and blow the horn. We gave out papers to color, and a piece of candy to each one.
We will have training every Thursday night beginning Nov 1. All fire fighters are encouraged to attend. Any one else is welcome to come and watch or help in some other way.
I will be out of town Friday, Sat, Sun and Monday. Jack McMurray will be in charge until my return.
Respectively Submitted,
Austin Sandefur, Chief
