Dundee
I was contacted by Terry Massingill this morning and he requested I email all the Chief's asking if any of your firefighters would be interested in assisting him with the Fire Trax accountability system for operations in Dundee. He said preferrably 2-3 people would be needed per day, depending on how long they are able to stay and help. This begins tomorrow. He is now Operations Command, as the Incident Management Team that came down left last night. There are over 200 citizen volunteers they are trying to keep account of and he can use all the help he can get over the next few days and would really appreciate it. If any of your personnel are interested, please call me on my cell phone listed below. Any and all help would be greatly appreciated in this time of need. Thanks again, R.J. R.J. Schall III Communications Specialist Monroe County Central Dispatch Secretary, Monroe County Firefighters Association Cell: (734) 777-8805 Work: (734) 243-7070 Summerfield Twp. Fire Dept.

New Tanker
Because of the continued support of the community the Fire Department was able to purchase a much needed new tanker. The Ferrara Fire apparutus was carfully designed to take all aspects of our township into consideration. We have recieved the following pictures of the newly delivered chassis. For the blueprints of the tanker take a look the the PDF version found HERE.
